Jeanne Trian

Eugenia (Jeanne) Irene Trian, 83, passed away Monday, August 17th at her home after fighting long against the tragic aspects of Alzheimer’s  Happily, she is now reunited with her husband of 58 years, Russell Trian, loving daughter Cynthia Ravenscraft, father Michael Mitchell, mother Anna Mitchell, and the incalcuable number of friends and family acquired over a life well lived. She was born in Chicago and spent her life putting her family first above all else.  She faced and conquered the inescapable tragedies of every life with dignity and compassion for others.  To say she was an avid reader, quilter, pastry chef, gourmet, and more minimizes the true impact and scope of her existence.  To us she is more than can be described in a list on a page.  She is the world we populated.  Our life. There is solace in knowing now she is no longer afflicted.  Now she remembers her children Linda Triana, Tina Triana, Lawrence Trian, and Richard Trian, whom she loved as only a mother can.  Now she remembers the constant care, the sacrifices made, and the great joy given to her in her last years, particularly by her son Richard. Now she remembers with love and pride, her grandchildren Marc Kusnierz and Alex Ravenscraft, whom never forgot her.  She remembers Tracy Watson, Michelle Triana, Liam Campbell, Michael Dotson, Dina Ravenscraft and Jeannie Ravenscraft. Now she remembers with joy, her great-grandchildren, John, Owen, Delaney, Keegan, Jacob, Ashley, Baylen, and Chance. Now she remembers her brother Raymond Mitchell and his family, whom she adored and loved without boundaries. Now, finally, she remembers the life God blessed her with. Now, without question, she remembers love.  Life has to end…love doesn’t.  Hello mom, you are you again. Our very heartfelt thanks to Dr. Allan Christ and the entire staff at Medical Associates in Galena.  We will always be grateful for your kindness and care.  Additional thanks to Lutheran Services for your gentle care and to Hospice of Dubuque.  Once again you gave peace and comfort when most needed. While the family privately says goodbye, we ask that you take time to show understanding and kindness in the life you know you have.
