Obituary
Jeanette Robbins, 79, of Redkey, Indiana, passed away peacefully Sunday, March 29, 2020, at her residence.
Jeanette was born in Wilder, Tennessee, on Feb. 3, 1940, a daughter of the late Pearl (Crownover) and Payton Hill. She was a graduate of Clark Range High School in Tennessee, and was the loving wife of the late Gene (Duke) Robbins who she happily married in 1962 and sadly lost in 2019.
Jeanette was a dedicated homemaker, wife and mother who adored children. She enjoyed church activities, reading her bible, gardening, listening to gospel music, quilting, crocheting, watching Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune and, most of all, spending time with her grandchildren.
Jeanette is survived by two sons, Mike Robbins and Steve Robbins (wife: LeAnna); one daughter, Shawna Eley (husband: Todd); one brother, Charles Hill (wife: Sue); 13 grandchildren; 16 great-grandchildren; and several nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her parents; husband Duke; two brothers, Floyd and Pete Hill; and two sisters, Mary Jo Weinstein and Anna Davis.
Services will be private at the convenience of the family with burial to follow in Hillcrest Cemetery.
At the family’s request and in order to keep family and friends safe during this difficult time, a Celebration of Life Service will be held at a late date in light of the coronavirus pandemic.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to State of the Heart Hospice for all the wonderful care they gave Jeanette's late husband Duke during his final days.
Arrangements have been entrusted to MJS Mortuaries – Redkey Chapel.
