Mrs. Jeanne Marie Gillett
November 24, 1948 - December 19, 2018
Jeanne Marie Gillett was born in Comstock, Michigan on November 24, 1948 to Alfred and Lydia Marie (Rogalla) Gillett who preceded her in death. Also preceding her was an infant son, Eddie Newbatt. Jeanne lived in her own little apartment in Rose Park in Bolivar, MO and joyed visits with her neighbors. In May 2018 she felt the need to have more care and moved to Citizens Memorial Health Care Facility in Bolivar, Mo where she lived until her passing. She enjoyed the various activities the nursing staff arranged. She renewed her vows to God 14 years ago and has been faithfully attending a worldwide non-denominational church group that meet in homes and the ministers go forth as Jesus sent his apostles. Her love for God and his way was very apparent to all who knew her. She loved reading her Bible and singing hymns. When she could no longer read or sing, she loved to have the Bible read to her and the hymns sung to her. She would often move her lips as people were singing though her voice was to weak to hear. Jeanne is survived by two daughters, Angela Marie King of Mountain Grove, MO and Melissa Cantrell of Bolivar, MO; one son, Jared Newbatt of Carthage, AZ; two brothers, Alfred Gillet of AZ and Dan Gillett of TX; 11 grandchildren; and five great-grandchildren. She also leaves a host of cousins and other relatives and friends to numerous to mention. Jeanne loved her family dearly and will be missed very much by them and many others. Funeral services will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, December 22, 2018 at the Cantlon Otterness & Viets Chapel with Brad Holman, Shay Neumann, and Katie Keim officiating. Escorts will be Jacob Smalley, Steven Bagwell, Bryce King, James McDaniel, Eric Christiansen, and Caleb Christiansen. Music will be provided by Kathleen Bly.
