This memorial website was created in memory of our beloved mother and friend, Jeanette Tannan Hoffman, who passed away on May 19, 2018. May her joie de vivre live on forever. Please feel free to share memories, tributes, and stories on these pages.
When my Mother met my wife-to-be, I was of course wanting to find out her impressions. I caught her alone near the garage door of our Harvey Ct. home, and asked, "Mom, what do you think of her?" I'll never forget Mom's reply, "Marry her! She's family!" The rest is history.
I remember once in the early years when Steve and I were first together and Ed and Jeanette were still living in the Harvey Ct. house, I was invited to help cook a special meal with Jeanette for the family. I had been around long enough to know that Jeanette wanting to cook a large meal again was a BIG DEAL and that being invited to HELP was an even BIGGER DEAL. I can't remember exactly what we cooked, though I remember it being rather complicated and taking most of the afternoon. The meal was a success, but what I remember was my feeling of really having the IN with the family and that my mother-in-law and I were going to not only get along, but be good friends. I knew that this invitation to work with her in her kitchen was a special one - of trust on her part and respect for me and my new role in the family. It remains one of my special memories of Jeannette, a special moment that just the 2 of us shared together.
