Jeanette M. Taylor

Jean was the head cook at St. Joseph’s Hospital for 20 years. Both Jean and Bill farmed for most of their lives. Jean was a marvelous story teller, remembering events back to her childhood. Jean was very proud of her son Ken’s accomplishments through school, and more so his profession as a Police Officer for the Lake Hallie Police Department.

         Jean and Bill enjoyed fishing on their pontoon and playing cards with family and friends. Not a night went by without watching “Wheel of Fortune!” She was known for her potato dumplings and Christmas candies, especially peanut butter balls.

         Jeanette is survived by her daughter-in-law, Jayne Taylor of Lake Hallie, many nieces, nephews and “Furever Family” Sammy and Murphy.

         Jeanette was preceded in death by her husband, William on November 15, 2016; one son, Kenneth Taylor; her parents; siblings, Henry, Pauline, George, John, Herman, Herbert, Louise, Agnes, Clarence, Elizabeth, Robert, Fredrick, Roland, Thomas, Harold, Dorthy and Angeline; and best friend, Betty Walter.
