Obituary of Jeannine Meredith

Jeannine Meredith, 80, passed away peacefully at home in Simi Valley on Wednesday, August 2nd. She felt deeply grateful and especially blessed to remain in her home under the loving care of her family throughout her decline and homebound years.

Jeannine was born in Nanticoke, PA, and graduated from St. Vincent’s Academy in Savannah, GA.
