Jeanne Avonne Metcalf, my wonderful and loving Mother, gently passed from this life to her eternal life on January 2, 2021 at her home in Dover, Delaware at the age of 98. I had the honor of being with Mom at her passing when she Read Obituary
Jeanne was a very special friend to my husband, daughter and myself. When we lost our spouses we continued a long distance friendship. I last talked to her just before Christmas. I cherish many memories of Jeanne and was kept up with her daughter Kathy.
We retired to Boise, Idaho, Ohio and I have now retired to Corpus Christi, but we were just a phone call away from each other. i know I will miss her but will never forget her.

Kathy,
Somewhere in heaven there is a pot of coffee brewing and our moms are listening to your dad’s jokes. I was sorry to hear about your mom but the independence she acquired as an Air Force wife had to be a factor in the tenacity she displayed...not only recently but even when we were young kids.
I sincerely hope a lifetime of great memories brings you random smiles and just wanted you to know I was thinking of you at this difficult time.

Kathy your mom was a special lady that I and my entire family loved dearly! She along with you and your dad gave my dad a home away from home. And what a wonderful home that was! How many nights did we spend playing canasta and laughing and nibbling? Far too many to count! Your mom was the hostess with the mostest and one of my fondest memories was her bustling in her kitchen in her apron making delicious dishes for us! She had beautiful eyes that would light up at the mention of her beloved husband or cherished daughter. Even though tiny in size she was the general of her home and family! I love you Jeanne or as my family called you “Mrs. M”. You will always have a treasured place in my heart. Now you are in the arms of your Savior and husband. Pretty sure you are playing canasta and urging my dad to eat some of your delicious banana pudding! ❤️
