Jeannie graduated from Marshall High School in 1973, graduating with honors in the top 2 percent of her class. She attended East Texas Baptist College, here in Marshall, and then received an associate of applied science degree in dental hygiene in 1975, completing her requirements magna cum laude and earning the highest GPA in the dental hygiene department. She is a longtime member of the American Dental Hygiene Association and has been employed by Marshall Dental Associates for almost 25 years.
Being the second oldest of nine children, family is very important to Jeannie. God has blessed her with a wonderful husband of more than 40 years, a daughter, a son, 6 grandsons and 1 precious granddaughter. She considers the time spent with her parents and mother-in-law a gift. Although she was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Marshall has been “home” to Jeannie.
