Jeanette’s life was defined by compassion, dedication, and an unwavering commitment to caring for others. For more than twenty years as a Pediatric Registered Nurse, she poured her heart into the care of children and their families. Her gentle presence, steady professionalism, and deep empathy brought comfort in moments of fear and hope in times of uncertainty.

Even after retiring from clinical nursing, Jeanette’s calling never faded. As a simulation specialist and instructor at the College of Southern Nevada, she devoted six more years to shaping future nurses—sharing her knowledge, her warmth, and the lived wisdom of a nurse who truly understood the meaning of care.

Jeanette will be remembered for her kindness, her humor, her strength, and the way she made people feel seen, valued, and understood. Her legacy lives on in her students, her patients, her colleagues, and the family she loved so deeply.

Like Nightingale’s lamp, Jeanette’s light continues to guide us—reminding us that nursing is not just a profession, but a calling of the heart.
