Jeannette (Barrette) Schwietz
October 13, 1920 - July 17, 2022
Jeannette passed away peacefully on July 17, 2022 at the age of 101. She lived a long and full life, living independently for over one hundred years. She was truly a remarkable woman.
Born and raised in St. Paul, MN, Jeannette lived most of her life there until moving to Bayport, MN in 2005. She attended the College of St. Catherine, majoring in art and worked as a copywriter for Brown & Bigelow until being married to Steve Schwietz in 1945 after the end of WWII.
Jeannette ~ wife, mother, grandmother, artist, friend, will be missed by all who knew and loved her. Always ready with a quip or a joke, her dry sense of humor will be fondly remembered.
Jeannette is survived by her children, Stephen R. Schwietz (Joy) Stillwater, MN, daughter Mary Schwietz (Gary McNurlen) and granddaughter Rachel McNurlen, Boulder, CO.
A graveside service and burial will be held on Sept. 23 at 10:30 AM, Fort Snelling National Cemetery. Friends and family are welcome to attend.
Memorials can be made to Lakeview Hospice or donor's choice. Friends and relatives are invited to share remembrances at Andersonfuneralhome.com or St.Paul Pioneer Press Legacy.com.
