Jeanette Warning, 68

Jeanette Warning, age 68, of Woodbury, Minn., died on Feb. 16 after her courageous battle with cancer.

Jeanette was born on March 1, 1943, in Elmhurst, Ill., to Stanley and Adele Kaskey. She grew up in Illinois and graduated from Proviso West High School. Jeanette worked as a mainframe computer operator at the Bedford Park, Ill., branch of 3M where she met Lyle Warning, another 3M employee. The two dated and on July 3, 1985, they were united in marriage in Chicago. Shortly after, both were transferred to 3M's St. Paul branch and made their home in Hudson, Wis. Jeanette would retire from 3M in 1993. In 2010, she and Lyle would move to Woodbury.

Jeanette had many hobbies and activities. She was an active member of Bethel Lutheran Church in Hudson and volunteered in her community. She loved to dance and spend time with neighbors, friends, and especially her family. Her two granddaughters were her passion and as they grew up she continued to be a part of their lives. Jeanette was an avid Green Bay Packer fan, lover of music - listening to such groups as the Bee Gees and Doobie Brothers - and enjoyed relaxing with jigsaw puzzles and reading.

Jeanette is survived by her husband, Lyle; her sister, Annie Eversz from Dallas, Texas; granddaughters, Angie and Cristal Franco; brother-in-law, Joe Schroeder; and numerous nieces, nephews, and dear friends.

Jeanette was preceded in death by her parents and daughter, Deborah Franco.

Services for Jeanette will be held at 3 p.m. Monday, Feb. 20, at Bethel Lutheran Church, downtown Hudson. Visitation will be held from 1-3 p.m. at the church. Memorials given will be donated to the Salvation Army.

Services are in the care of the O'Connell Family Funeral Home - Hudson chapel, 715-386-3725, www.oconnellfuneralhomes.com.
