Jeanne Garvin (nee Johnson), 92, of Muscatine, passed away peacefully on Thursday, June 23, 2016, at Lutheran Living Senior Campus. Funeral Mass will be held at 9 a.m. on Monday, June 27, 2016, at St. Mathias Church. A funeral luncheon will be held following the mass at the Mazzuchelli Faith Formation Center at Ss. Mary and Mathias Catholic School, 2407 Cedar Street. Burial will take place in Greenwood Cemetery at a later date. Visitation will be held at the Ralph J. Wittich-Riley-Freers Funeral Home with a Rosary Prayer Service at 4 p.m. at the funeral home. Memorials may be made to Lutheran Living Senior Campus, Salvation Army, or the Muscatine Community Y. The family would like to thank the caregivers and staff of Lutheran Living for their compassion and kindness. Jeanne was born on July 13, 1923, in Muscatine, the daughter of Amyl W. and Isabel Kyle Johnson Sr. She graduated from Muscatine High School, Class of 1940, and earned her nursing diploma from Mercy Hospital School of Nursing in Davenport in 1944. She married Wayne 'Lefty' Charles Garvin on December 13, 1945, at the St. Mary's Church in Muscatine. He preceded her in death on August 10, 2003. After completing her nursing training, Jeanne began a long and distinguished career in nursing, working first in the office of Dr. Parke Jessup in Muscatine, then at Muscatine County Hospital (now known as UnityPoint Trinity Muscatine). From 1974, until her retirement in 1988, Jeanne served as the Director of Nursing at Muscatine General Hospital. Jeanne derived a great deal of pleasure from serving others as a nurse and administrator. Her enthusiasm for her profession showed not only in her demeanor toward patients and colleagues, but in her desire to keep learning. She earned additional degrees from the University of Minnesota and St. Ambrose University during the course of her nearly 30 year career. She was an active member of Ss. Mary and Mathias Catholic Church and was a charter member of Keystone Federated Women's Club of Muscatine. She was a lifelong St. Louis Cardinal fan and she expressed her passion for learning through her hobbies. She enjoyed traveling whenever possible and was a self-described "foodie" dedicated to trying and sharing new recipes with family and friends. A voracious reader, she was always ready with a book recommendation. She spent hours knitting and quilting beautiful, one-of-a-kind gifts for her family and friends. Her curiosity was unquenchable. Jeanne thoroughly enjoyed her family. She always encouraged and supported the endeavors of her three children, six grandchildren, and eight great-grandchildren. She possessed a quick and dry wit and a down-to-Earth point of view. Her counsel and humor will be greatly missed by all those privileged to know and love her. Those left to honor her memory include three sons, Patrick Garvin of Washington, D.C., Steven Garvin and wife, Cynthia, and Timothy Garvin and wife, Susan, all of Muscatine; six grandchildren; nine great-grandchildren; one brother, Jere H. Johnson of Victorville, California; one nephew, Robert Johnson of Seagrove, North Carolina; three nieces, Joann Wintermute of Muscatine, Sally Headley of Carlysle, and Roxe Roseman of Walcott. She is preceded in death by her parents; her husband; one brother, Amyl W. Johnson Jr.; one sister, Betty Talkington; and one nephew, Mark Johnson.
