Jenny was loved by all and lived her life so well.
I think she moved to HJ when I was in the seventh or eighth grade. She was one of the fun teachers.
God rest her sweet soul and bless her family. She will be missed.
Jenny brought sunshine & joy wherever she was. I am grateful to have been her friend.
Just learned of Jenny’s passing. So sorry to have missed her visitation & service. Prayers for comfort for her family. Jenny was a good friend & neighbor here in Beaumont.
I am so very sorry for your loss. It sounds like she was a wonderful person who will be missed by many.
Jenny Neichoy was a force of nature who left an impact on anyone she met. We loved her and will cherish the memories we shared. Our lives are richer for having known her.
Praying for the family GODs peace and comfort as they process the pain of the loss of this treasured family member.💝🕊️🙏✝️
I called her Miss Neichoy for PE class, Coach Neichoy for basketball games and Jenny for later in life when she was my friend. She was all of those and more-what a character. You always knew if you had done something she didn’t like. She would either scream at you at the top of her lungs or just stand there with her hands on her hips and give you the evil eye. It was her fault for trying to make a guard out of a forward. I could shoot but not dribble worth a darn. Life at H-J was never dull with her around. Jenny will be missed. RIP from “one of those Attaway girls”.
Prayers for family and friends. May God comfort you. She was my Physical Education Teacher at Hardin Jefferson. She was a great teacher. She was full of joy and cared so much for all of her students. I can still hear her calling me by my last name ❤️
Jenny and I were both members of the Greater Sabine chapter of Sweet Adelines Intl. She really enjoyed the music, performing and friendships of all the members. Ever the coach, she kept us on our toes too! She’ll be missed.
Jenny was a fun person to be around. She was an educator extraordinaire! So glad to have worked with her at HJ!
Praying for this family during this time of sorrow.
We all loved Jenny, and she loved us. What great days we had at HJ! God did not make buy one Jenny, and he did a great job!
Great picture!
Played Bridge with Jenny for many years, she was one of the most delightful ladies I have ever known . She loved all her family and was a good friend to all.
Preston, Eva Gail and Kimberly,
I am so sorry to hear about Jenny. I have some great memories of the fun times we had growing up.
I’m am also sorry I can’t be there for the service, but I send my love and prayers for comfort to you all. God Bless you all.
