Coach Downey and family,

Behind every great coach is a patient and enduring wife who lives with the ups and downs of the coaching profession.  Jeanne filled that position in your family with greatness.  I will always have fond memories of her support of the teams I played on and all of the athletes which made up those teams.

My thoughts and prayers are with you.  God Bless.

Tara, your mother was a piece of Heaven on earth.  We were all so very blessed to know her and to be welcomed by her with her incredible smile.  You mom, Jeanne, loved you, your dad, and her grandchildren with an all encompassing kind and generous heart.  She was a remarkable human being.  My sympathy goes out to you and your family.  Jeanne will be missed greatly!  Jill Gorell

Tera, Katlyn and Nathan,

I am so sorry to hear about your mother and grandmother, she loved life and each of you very much.  Karissa always told me how much she loved Katlyn's grandma and how much fun she was.   Karissa still talks about the shopping you girls did the day after Thanksgiving, starting at midnight and going all night long.   We are thinking about you and praying for all of you.   If you need anything we are here for you.
