Mary Jeanine Atkin
August 21, 1938 - March 19, 2022
Our beautiful, strong, genuine, and always caring mother passed away. She was known by many as “Mary”, “Jeanine”, “Mary Jeanine” but most importantly as “Mom”, and “Nana” and even recently as “Bubble G”. She had many trials and tribulations in her life from broken bones to surviving breast cancer and always came out on top.
Mom was an avid fan and graduate of the University of Utah where she also was member of the Delta Gamma Sorority.
She was a dedicated Executive Assistant for First Security and Wells Fargo Bank for many years. She was a member of the Salt Lake Jaycees and even held the position of Ladies Auxiliary President. But her greatest accomplishment in life was being the best wife, mother and Nana ever.
She will be loved and missed endlessly by all. She is preceded in death by her husband (Leland), brother (Leonard Keitz) and parents (James and Kathryn Keitz). She is survived by her 4 children Greg, Sean (Sheyla), Kristin (Todd) and Leslie (Mark) as well as eleven wonderful grandchildren and two great grandchildren.
A celebration of Jeanine’s life will be on April 2, 2022 from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm at Starks Funeral Parlor.
In lieu of flowers please make donations to Breast Cancer Awareness.
The Family would like to thank Tender Care Home Health and Hospice for the outstanding care they gave mom. Her final journey was handled with much gentleness & love.
In Loving Memory
Thoughts and prayers to all of you during this difficult time. Your mom was an amazing and loving women, I have great memories of her. I am sad that I will be out of town not able to attend her celebration of life. Hugs to all of you. xo
