I was so very sad to see Jeanne has passed away. I worked with her at Van Scoy years ago and even after I left that job I would stop by to see her and Jack at their home in Mountville. I saw her after she married her second husband and she told me how she met him and we laughed and she seemed very happy. There was a big age difference between the two of us but that didn’t matter, we always had some great talks & laughs together. I moved away to FL for a number of years but moved back to Lancaster and went by her home as I wasn’t sure if she still lived there but it seemed someone new lived there. I was actually just thinking of her last week and wondered if I could locate her as I truly enjoyed talking and laughing with her. I regret I hadn’t tried to find her sooner. She was such a classy woman and so down to earth and funny. I am sorry I didn’t get to see her again. I will keep all of her family in my prayers and to all of you, cherish all of your memories of your wonderful mom, mother-in-law, grandmother, great grandmother and friend. I know I will.

A true Lady in every sense of the word. All who knew her will remember her with a smile and a tear. Sincerest sympathy from the Drybred family.

We feel so lucky to have known Jeanne. She was never without a smile and we loved spending time with her especially during Christmas. We always marveled at her strength and independence. She will forever be in our hearts.

Jeanne Kraft was one of the kindest people I have ever known! Our family’s visits to the cottage are forever etched in my mind. There is a very special place in Heaven for this lady and I am honored to have her as my guardian angel! . . . Julie Wallick

I’ve only known Jeanne for a couple of years through mutual friends, but found her to be warm and welcoming. And a stunning woman. My sympathies to her family.

I have very fond remembrances of Jeanne– “Mom” from summers at Piney Cove. Memories that pop into mind are crabbing and first crab feast; hair blowing through her hair while driving a white and red boat pulling the kids on skis; a blue and brown bathing suit; tall gin and tonics; camp fires; hot dogs; coloring my mom’s hair for the first time; diamond necklaces; a cabin on the lane; Jeanne clipping Mitzi on the porch; pots of soup or chili simmering on the stove; and many more that will continue to vist me from time to time. She was a beautiful woman throughout her lifetime. I feel lucky to have known her.
Much love to Chris and Scott, Wesley and Eric, and all of the family.
