Dear Lazzaro Family,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Jeannette was a special lady, wife and mother. Being next door neighbors for many years made my summers full of wonderful memories. Jeannette always had that driver's arm tan and a big smile. She will be missed but will stay in my heart forever. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

My deepest sympathy, Janet Biondi Sweeney
