Jeane was born on October 27th in Onaway, Michigan to James and Eva Franklin. She married Francis Church. Jeane began working for different restaurants as a cook. Soon the couple welcomed 6 children into their home and Jeane transitioned into a homemaker. Her children remember her as a kind, gentle and patient mother who encouraged them to pursue their goals.
Jeane was accomplished at culinary arts and often you could not find a better conversationalist. Jeane was a very social person who always had a smile on her face made an effort to welcome all those who would come to her home. Later in life Jeane was solely referred to as grandma because she showed the love and compassion only a grandmother does to anyone who had the pleasure of knowing this kind women, not just her own family. She was a witty individual who loved her growing family and who was passionate about ensuring they were happy and loved. She was a dedicated member of the Church of Later-Day Saints.
