Mrs. Jeanne S. Seeley, 77, of Charlotte, died March 18, 2002 following a courageous, albeit brief battle with cancer. She was born October 13, 1924 in Cleveland, Ohio, the daughter of the late William Leonard Seubert and Alberta Seubert Davies. She attended Ohio University where she studied Home Economics. While devoted to her family and home, she worked as a secretary for many years prior to retirement.
In recent years, her life was particularly marked by an unequivocal affection and commitment to her grandchildren. She will be remembered, too, as a dedicated and caring friend to many.
Jeanne’s survivors include her husband of 56 years, Gerald, of the home; sister Joann Scheele of Portland, Oregon; four children, Barbara Baker and her husband Don of Winston-Salem, Jane Seeley of Mr. Shasta, CA, Joann Keane and her husband, Jim, of Charlotte, and David Seeley of Lake Wylie, SC; and six grandchildren, Elizabeth and Cameron Baker, Chris, Paul and Daniel Keane, and Jarod Seeley. She is also survived by five nephews and two nieces.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations are made to the American Cancer Society, 500 East Morehead Street, Suite 211, Charlotte, NC 28202.
A memorial service to celebrate the life of Jeanne Seeley, officiated by Bishop William G. Curlin, will be held 2 p.m. Friday, March 22, at St. Vincent de Paul Church in Charlotte.
Harry and Bryant Company is serving the family of Mrs. Seeley.
