It is with broken hearts we announce the passing of our beloved Mother, Jeannine Adele Barde, who died on December 13, 2021 in Tennessee at the age of 63. Jeannine was a loving mother of four children; Leigh-Ann (and her husband Roc Romain), Kristen, Russell (who passed away as an infant in 1988), and William. She was also the proudest Nonna of her four grandsons Anthony, David, Vincent, and Nicholas.
Born and raised on the south shore of Long Island, Jeannine loved the beach and all the sights of New York City. She was a graduate of Lindenhurst Senior High School and of Kaplan University, where she earned a paralegal degree.
Her family will forever miss watching Law & Order marathons, the Godfather trilogy, the Gladiator, and A Christmas Story with her on holidays. Anyone that knows Jeannine well knew she was a true classic rock fan, oftentimes forcing her children to listen to endless hours of artists like Queen, the Beatles, Phil Collins, Elton John, Fleetwood Mac, Santana, and Ian Anderson. Jeannine was always one to take over the car radio, even when she wasn’t driving.
Jeannine’s contagious laugh, caring and fun loving spirit, and her amazing sense of humor will be greatly missed, but never forgotten.
