Jeanne Hight

Jeanne C. Hight (nee Dockray), age 90, of Drexel Hill, PA, passed away on March 28, 2017 surrounded by her family. Born in Bennington, VT, she was the daughter of the late George and Mary Dockray (nee Finan).



Jeanne was a giving, caring, strong, family oriented person. She enjoyed traveling with her family to Bennington, VT, Hyde Park, NY, Camano Island, WA, and Lake Tahoe, NV for her grandson Danny's wedding. She loved sewing, reading, cooking, and listening to music, especially her son Joe's original songs, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, and Perry Como. Her greatest joy was spending time with her family. She hosted dinner for four generations every Saturday night well into her 80's, she was blessed to have been able to enjoy her 90th birthday party in October which was attended by over 100 friends and family members, and she proudly attended her grandson Jamie's wedding in Lancaster just three weeks ago.



Jeanne was predeceased by her husband John C. Hight and her son Robert E. Hight. She is survived by her children John C. Hight (Sharon), Thomas J. Hight, Joseph W. Hight, James M. Hight, Mary E. Grimaldi (Dennis), and Jeanne E. Ricci (Chris), as well as her brother John Dockray (Jean-Ann), her sister-in-law Frances Dockray, 10 grandchildren, 6 great-grandchildren, and many cousins, nieces, nephews, and friends.
