Jeanne Corwin

November 24, 1925 - February 12, 2010

Jeanne Corwin Obituary (Age 84) passed away on February 12, 2010 in Spokane, WA. She was born on November 24, 1925 to Arthur and Sarah Brown and raised in Iowa. Jeanne was trained as a Registered Nurse and worked for the Veterans Administration and later for Deaconess Hospital until her retirement. Her true passion and vocation was that of mother. We thank her for the bond between siblings, the struggle and pleasures of raising five children so close in age? it is truly a gift that will outlast a lifetime. We love you. She joins those who have gone before her; parents Arthur and Sarah; husbands, Patrick E. Devaney and Joseph Corwin; her grandson, J.J. Caro; sisters Marge and Esther and Brother Walter. She leaves behind her five children: Geraldine Devaney, Kathleen (Devaney) Caro, Sharon (Rick) Wakefield, Kevin Devaney and Kimberly (Greg) Ryan; her 12 grandchildren: Christopher C. Caro, Jennifer Caro, Jacquelyn Caro, Kevin Caro, Calley Ryan, Mara Ryan, Meg Ryan, Landon Wakefield and Riley Wakefield, Nikki (Gary) Hicks, Scott (Jan) Siedelman, Sabrina (Steve) Vinzant; and her 11 great grandchildren: Ashton Hixon, Madeline Caro, Zoe Caro, Teague Caro, Kayla and Maryanne Hicks, Evan and Kya Siedelman, Codee and Ellie Vinzant and one due to arrive in May 2010 and her brothers Byron (Maryann) Brown and Richard (Reba) Brown. Our mother traveled along an often times difficult road but always rallied and never gave in. This attitude became most evident in her final battle with cancer. We want to thank her caregivers, Brenda, Sharon and Debra who not only cared for her with equal determination but also gave her the gift of friendship and love that added a special dimension to this chapter of her life? also to Hospice of Spokane, all their guidance and especially to Nancy and Kara who brought us comfort in our time of need. A private memorial for family and friends will be scheduled at a later date. Please make donations to Hospice of Spokane, P O Box 2215, Spokane, WA 99210 or Cancer Research or your favorite charity in our mother?s name.
