She was born July 17, 1948 in Catskill, New York, the daughter of the late Margaret and John Hodor. She lived in Palenville, New York until 1969 when she moved to Tampa.
Jeannie was predeceased by her beloved son Frank Jr. who was the absolute light of her life and passed away much too soon in August, 2021.
She is survived by husband Frank, grandson Rocco, daughter-in-law
Becky Cardinale, sister Joan Lanuto of Catskill, New York, brother John Rell of Saugerties, New York, and many dearly loved and loving nieces and nephews.
She was predeceased by sisters Claudette Skelton, Barbara Rappolt, Judy Cosseboom and Marjorie "Midge" Hill, and brothers Charles Rell, Richard Rell, and Barry Rell.
Jeannie was a devout Catholic who attended St. Patrick's Academy in Catskill where she graduated with the class of 1966.
During her life she was employed in various positions including legal clerk, bank teller and manager of a retail furniture store.
Jeannie loved children and animals, especially puppies and giraffes. But her real passion and the center of her life was her home and family: She was fun-loving and exuberant with a warm, caring nature and devoted to those she loved in life:
husband, son, grandson, parents, sisters, brothers, nieces, nephews and friends.
She was the center and anchor of her family and her affection, devotion and tireless spirit made her house a true home for her loved ones.
Jeannie had a beautiful smile, beautiful sparkling eyes and best of all a
beautiful heart.
Those of us who were fortunate to have Jeannie close to us in life remain forever touched by her countenance, spirit, devotion, inner beauty, and warm heart.
She will live on in our hearts for all time.
Relatives and friends may visit to celebrate Jeannie’s life from 2:00 to 4:00 PM Friday, January 14 with a service following immediately after at Blount and McCurry Funeral Home, 3207 West Bearss Avenue, Tampa, FL 33618.
