Jeanette was genuinely an artist, and she was truly thankful that she was working as an artist. She had an indomitable spirit, and she was hungry to be the best person she could be, the best teacher, the best friend, the best actor.
“The world has lost a force of nature, and for a long time we will feel that. We are fortunate to have met her, and she has touched those of us who knew her. The immense pain I feel right now is calmed by the fact that I can witness how much you saw her and respected her. Because if you had missed that, it would have been a shame. We’re going to make sure we remember her and we’re going to keep her in our hearts”.
