In Loving Memory of Jeanette Papa Yeager: 

Jeanette, predeceased by her beloved parents Margaret and Samuel Papa, leaves behind a legacy of love and cherished memories. She is survived by her children, Michelle Yeager and Warren Yeager. Michelle's family includes her son Connor Brown (partner Alexandria Ramirez), and her grandchildren Fiona Evangeline, Matthew Alexander, and Derek Chappell. Warren's family includes his children Naomi and Jude Yeager and Hannah Coughlin.

Jeanette is also survived by her sister Peggy Campione and her partner Peter Embrey, as well as her niece Lori Campione Ferguson, her husband Ken Ferguson, and their children, Ellen and Adam Ferguson. Her nephew Christopher Campione, his wife Meghan, and their four children, Joseph, Maggie, James, and Catie Liz, also mourn her loss.

She was predeceased by her beloved sister Diana Janes and her husband Robert Janes, as well as her nephews Robert, Russel, and Richard Janes. Jeanette's niece Diana (Dee Dee) Dick, her husband Brian, and their children, Loren and Logan Dick, survive her, along with Russel's children, her great niece & nephew Candace and Sam Janes. Additionally, she is survived by her nephew Tim Papa, his wife Norma, and their son Ben.

Jeanette's memory will forever be cherished by her family and friends. She was a kind and generous soul who loved deeply and cared for those around her. Jeanette would literally give the shirt off her back to anyone in need, and she did so time and time again. She adored her dachshund, Sampson, and we hope she is now cuddling with him in heaven. Jeanette was an example of God's love by showing unconditional love to those around her. She was passionate about music and loved to play the flute. If you were to describe Jeanette with one word, it would be "giver"

Family will receive friends 4-6pm Friday, January 10, 2025, at New Comer Cremations & Funerals, 2636 Ridgeway Avenue.( corner of Long Pond Rd.) Funeral services will follow visitation at 6pm in the chapel of the funeral home. Interment will be held in the Spring in Oatka Cemetery.
