Jeanine Marie (Bos) Van Hollebeke
June 8, 1953 – September 8, 2021
Jeanine Marie (Bos) Van Hollebeke, passed away on Sept. 8, at Sacred Heart Hospital in Spokane. Jeanine was born on June 6, 1953, in Yakima, Washington, to Kenneth and Beverly (Myers) Bos. She grew up in Othello in her younger years. When she was a teenager the family moved to Prosser, Washington, where she met the love of her life, Mark Van Hollebeke, and finished high school, graduating in 1971. Mark and Jeanine were married Oct. 1, 1971, and then settled in Sunnyside, Washington, where they remained for many years. Jeanine worked in dentistry for 40 years and for many years also ran “Chatterbox Pizza” along with her husband and family. There’s not a single great memory you have that doesn’t include Chatterbox Pizza.
Jeanine loved spending time at the family summer home on Williams Lake with family and friends and was fortunate enough to spend the majority of this past summer there, along with her dog Bella.
Jeanine was a beautiful, loving, kind and sweet lady. She brought a smile to anyone who crossed her path. Her kind heart was visible in her eyes. If you needed a hug that felt like home, “Jeanie” was the one to grant it to you. She loved her family and friends with all her heart. She will be truly missed. We now have another beautiful angel in heaven to watch over us.
Jeanine is survived by her son, Dustin and wife Elizabeth; grandsons Stephan Van Hollebeke and wife Natalie and Eric Sarmiento and wife Lisa; six great-grandchildren Andrew, Mia, Eric Jr., Hayden, Christopher and Emma; and numerous cousins. She was preceded in death by her loving husband, Mark Van Hollebeke, and her parents, Ken and Beverly Bos.
A private celebration of life for family will be held at a later date.
