JEANNE

A helping hand, a friendly voice
A caring soul, the people's choice.
Jeanne, Jeanne of the light brown hair,
the touch of your heart is everywhere.

There are Davids and Johns and Tom, Dick and Harrys,
there are Susans and Marthas and Joannes and Marys,
all can be grateful and all can now share
in Community Connections, that you helped be there.

Basketball, volleyball, movies and pool,
who would have thought they'd be in an old school.
But once again, thanks to your caring heart,
the community's youth have a good place to start.

Your creative mind is always in motion,
from one little word you come up with a notion
and like a magician it seems there appears
a solution to many people's sorrows and tears.

All the lives you have touched, you never will know
for through the years so many have come and will go,
but the things you have given them will stay through the years,
to be passed on to others, their colleagues and peers.

Jeanne, Jeanne of the light brown hair,
the touch of your heart is everywhere.
