Jeanne Frances Hannebaum

Jeanne Frances Hannebaum, 83, of Yukon, OK passed away peacefully on August 9, 2025, after a courageous battle with cancer. Born on November 30, 1941, in Topeka, Kansas, to Frank and Genevieve Bieberly, Jeanne devoted her life to faith, family, and service to others.

A longtime member of Saint John Nepomuk Catholic Church, Jeanne was deeply involved in parish life. She found joy and fellowship in her book club, rosary group, Stephen Ministries, and many other church activities, where she formed lasting friendships that enriched her life.

Jeanne graduated from Sisters of St. Joseph School of Nursing and worked as a nurse for 45 years. 39 of those years were in the ER at Mercy Hospital, offering care, comfort, and compassion to countless patients and families. After retiring, she dedicated herself to her most cherished role—helping care for her grandchildren. She looked forward to picking up her grandsons from school every day, treasuring those moments more than anything.

She was also a creative spirit, though she rarely gave herself enough credit for her talents. Jeanne loved traveling with her beloved husband, Dean, sharing many adventures and memories together.

Jeanne is survived by her children and their spouses: Laura and Michael Murray, Brian and Natalie Hannebaum, Scott and Cynde Hannebaum, and Andrea and Christopher Gaylord; and her grandchildren: Conner, Carter, and Caeson Gaylord, and Abbigale Hannebaum. She is preceded in death by her husband, Dean; her parents, Frank and Genevieve Bieberly; and her sisters, Jerilyn Broussard and Janet Wilkerson.

Jeanne will be remembered for her unwavering faith, her caring heart, and the countless ways she quietly enriched the lives of those around her.
