It was at Union Electric she met the love of her life, Donald Troupis, who was an electrical engineer at UE. Jeanette and Don were married in September 1992 and remained married until Don's death in 2005. Jeanette and Don enjoyed travel including trips to Europe, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, and other domestic destinations. They were also former social members of the Legends Country Club for several years. Jeanette and Don enjoyed celebrating New Years Eve at the Ritz Carlton in Clayton. Jeanette was fiercely independent living alone in her South St. Louis County town home until mid-2019 when she was 97 years old. After several hospital stays, Jeanette lived the last five months of her life at Delmar Gardens, Chesterfield Nursing Home. She continued to drive her own car to age 90, when she voluntarily gave up her car keys knowing it was no longer safe for her to drive an automobile. Jeanette loved her town home patio garden and receive numerous compliments on her selection and placement of plants and flowers. Jeanette was a striking strawberry haired lady and stylish dresser for her entire life. She remained a lover of all animals, but especially her four-legged children Holly and Bon Bon. Jeanette was also a devoted Catholic and donated generously to her local parish. We celebrate Jeanette's long life, and know that she will be reunited with her loving husband Don in heaven along with her mother and father and three other siblings.
