Cousin to Laura Hensley, Bryon Hensley, Tim and Renee Hensley, the late Russell Hensley, Jody and Angie Foulks, plus a host of wonderful family and friends far too numerous to mention, and especially her beloved Doak School family where she taught school for 17 years. Jeana found positive in every situation and had strong faith and trust in her Lord. She would not want you to mourn or be sad for her. Instead, celebrate her life, think of a sweet or funny story about her and remember the many, many good times! She touched countless students’ lives in her many years of teaching. Jeana was instrumental in helping to raise thousands of dollars for the fight against cancer. She was a true warrior. Many family, loved ones and friends have paved the way to Heaven for her and are celebrating! Grandparents, Scott and Pauline Hensley, Lawrence Jr and Viola Rollins, husband and Sadie and Chloe’s dad, Mark Helton, bonus mom, Gina Rollins, cousin Russell Hensley, uncles and aunt, Colonel Earl Hensley, Donald and Linda Hensley, and other cousins, friends, and students. To honor Jeana’s wishes, there will be no formal funeral service. You may share condolences and sweet stories on Jeffers Funeral and Cremation Service’s website under Jeana’s memorial page. Donations in her memory can be made to the Greeneville-Greene County Humane Society: 950 Hal Henard Road, Greeneville, TN. Her motto was, “God only gives His toughest battles to His strongest soldiers.” 2 Corinthians 5:8 “We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body and present with the Lord.”
