She was born on November 26, 1921 in Hartford, CT, daughter of the late Harry and Stephanie (Tarasiuk) Soroko. Prior to her retirement, Jeanette was an employee for 38 years of the U.S Government Defense Supply Agency. As a government inspector at Colt Fire Arms she could assemble entirely the Browning Machine Gun. She was very proud to have been the first woman Property Disposal Manager in the North East Region.

She traveled throughout the United States as well as France, Spain, Italy, Bermuda and Poland numerous times.

Jeanette was very proud of her Polish heritage as well as her devotion to the Holy Catholic Church. Her greatest experience was meeting and shaking hands with Pope John Paul II. Her vibrant personality will be missed by all who knew her.
