It is with both heavy hearts and grateful spirits that we share the news that our beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother went home to be with the Lord. She passed away peacefully following a brief illness.

Jeanette June (Bradtke) Hitzfield was born June 18th 1933 to John and Elsie Bradtke of Chicago Illinois. She was the youngest of four children and the only daughter.

Jeanette met the love of her life in 1949 Donald V. Hitzfield. They were married August 30, 1952.

Jeanette is survived by her husband Donald, son Ronald, daughter-in-law Annette, daughters Leslie and Karen, and grandchildren Daniel, his wife Emily, John, Neal, Lauren, Matthew, Andrew, and great grandchildren Logan and Arthur.

Jeanette was a follower of Jesus Christ and trusted in Him for her salvation. We take great comfort in knowing we will see her again.
