Jeanette was born Sept. 17, 1953, in Le Mars, Iowa, the daughter of John and Evelyn (Blackmoore) Fischer. She attended school in Le Mars.

During December 1978, she met the love of her life, Leroy Reichenbach. They were married in Sioux City on Jan. 2, 1980, and have spent 29 wonderful years together. Those years were spent between living in Pennsylvania and Iowa. The couple often teased each other about who loved who the most. They often answered each other's calls by saying Happy Birthday.

She enjoyed crafts, playing bingo, going to hockey and collecting Coca Cola memorabilia. She also enjoyed riding their Harley and traveling with Leroy. They traveled from Sturgis to Niagara Falls to Mexico to the Rocky Mountains to Disney World and several places in between. She was a homemaker, but also worked for a time as a nurse's aide as well as running a day-care in her home, so she could be with her children.

She often volunteered her time through the Sigby organization as a treasurer and many other organizations. She always helped out whenever she could, whether it be emotionally, physically or financially. She had a very generous heart. She was a wonderful daughter, wife, mother, grandmother and friend. Spending time with family and friends made her very happy.

Survivors include her husband, Leroy; her mother, Evelyn Fischer of Le Mars; her children, Keane Fischer and his wife, Shelia of South Sioux City, Lisa and her husband, Kenneth Sherman Sr. of Sioux City and Leroy Reichenbach Jr. of Sioux City; nine grandchildren, Amber (18), Samantha (17), Devon (15), Tyler (14), Taresa (12), Kenny Jr. (10), Eric (6), Destiny (5) and Justice (1); a great-granddaughter, Shianna (1); and a brother, David Fischer and his wife, Helen of Le Mars.

She was preceded in death by a daughter, Teresa Stough; and her father, John Fischer.
