Jeanette Marie Halterman, 81, of Hiram, OH, went home to her Lord and Savior on Saturday, November 4, 2023. She was born in Cleveland, OH, on September 15, 1942, to the late Benjamin P. and Genevieve T. (Mikolanis) Schulman.
She was the oldest of nine siblings; Joan, Gene, Kathy, Mary, Francine, Debbie, Tom, and Dick. Jeanette, for several years, taught and assisted adults with how to handle and help children in conflict within a home setting. She then earned a Practical Nursing degree from Akron School of Practical Nursing. Soon after she married Frank, they had two sons, John and Frederick. Jeanette’s main goal then became caring for and helping her family. She enjoyed the changing of the seasons, and decorating for the holidays. Jeanette was a long-time member of St. Ambrose Roman Catholic Church, and her faith was a very important part of her life.
Jeanette will be deeply missed by her loving husband, Francis “Frank” J. Halterman, Jr., who was blessed to share 48 years of marriage; sons, John F. (Jeromica “Romie”) Halterman, of Sherman, TX, and Frederick J. Halterman, of Hiram, OH; her eight siblings, and many nephews, nieces, and dear friends.
She was preceded in death by her parents.
Friends and family joined in visitation and farewell on Wednesday, November 8, 2023, at St. Ambrose Roman Catholic Church, 10692 Freedom St., Garrettsville, OH 44231. A Mass of Christian Burial was held at the church, with Fr. Joseph Ruggieri officiating.
