She enjoyed dancing with her friends at DeeDee's and visiting the casinos. Wherever Jeannie went she made a lasting impression with her infectious smile. She is survived by her son, Mark (Cara) Farinella; daughters, Tamara (Ricky Beckman) Farinella, Dawn (Walter) Falzo, and Kimberly (Tom Falzo) Farinella; granddaughter, Jennifer Ring; grandson, Nicholas Nelson; several nieces and nephews whom she loved, and who loved her dearly; and her two half-brothers. In addition to her parents, Jeannie was predeceased by her sisters, Alverda, Mable, and Doris; and her brother, Clarence Smith. Family and friends are invited to attend calling hours on Monday, June 13, from 10 a.m. - 1 p.m. at New Comer Cremations & Funerals, 343 New Karner Rd., Colonie.
