Born January 15, 1950, to the late Maxine (Ole) and Orie Stauffer, Jeannette was the second of five children. She attended Alva Public Schools and graduated with the class of 1968. She met the love of her life, Roger, at a 4-H dance. They were united in marriage on April 4, 1969. To this union two sons were born: Dustin and Derick. Jeannette was a Certified Public Accountant and worked as the treasurer for the Red Carpet Country organization for over 30 years. She was active with 4-H and FFA when her boys were growing up and was called to help again when her grandkids were old enough to be a part of these organizations. She loved to share her love of baking with her grandchildren and their friends. Many endings to games or activities came with her famous Grandma Stauffer Cookies. She was also a very talented seamstress and put in a lot of time making Halloween and Dance costumes. She attended many Goldbug and Ladybug sporting events, especially those that her children and grandchildren participated in. She enjoyed time on her porch with her great grandson, Calvin, as they would watch the vehicles pass by. She attended the Alva Church of God and took part in the Ladies Group activities. Besides her parents, Orie and Maxine, she was preceded in death by her loving husband, Roger; her son, Dustin Graves; brothers, Craig and Kurt Stauffer; and sister, Donnette Stauffer. Jeannette is survived by her son, Derick Graves and his wife, April, of Alva; her brother, Kim Stauffer and his wife, Arlene, of Ponca City; her grandchildren, Sylus Graves and his wife, Mia, Clyce Graves and his fiancé, Ashley Booth, and Myah Graves, all of Alva; and one great grandson, Calvin LeRoy Graves, along with other relatives and friends.
