She was a volunteer for her girls in Girl Scouts, 4-H and JA, then later at a local retirement home. She was active for many years in the League of Women Voters, and Toastmasters. As a real estate broker, she ran her own business for many years. Painting was something that gave her joy over the years. She shared this love of art and painting with her departed step mother Dora Reed Evans. Jeannette loved board games, card games, and trips to Las Vegas and Florida with family. Most of all, the thing Jim will tell you, is that his beloved wife Jeannette was a wonderful mother. Survivors include her husband Jim Pahls of 56 yrs, her 3 daughters Diane (Bill) Lillibridge of Lewiston, Idaho, Annette Zanko (John-deceased) of Kirtland, Susan Pahls of Dayton, her 3 grandsons Colton Zanko, Aiden and Sean Lillibridge, her siblings David (Kay) Evans, Patricia Ruehr (Bill-deceased), Gary (Barb) Evans, and Douglas (Kathy) Evans.
