🌟 Jeanne Robertson was more than a humorist – she was a storyteller, motivator, and a ray of positivity. Watch this rare 2012 interview, share your thoughts, and tell us your favorite Jeanne moment. 💬❤

My heart sank when I found out she passed. It’s hard to believe she’s gone!!

What a national treasure we’ve lost.

I never got to see Jeanne live, but I hope God tells her how much we really cared (and still do!) and what a GREAT job she did. Anyone that brings that kind of joy to your heart deserves a stage of her own in heaven.

Rest In Peace Jeanne. You were a blessing to us and will continue to be as we remember to laugh. Thank you Lord for bringing Jeanne’s stories into my life. She left them for us and we are blessed. May we meet again sweet lady.

Will miss her so much. Jeanne's humor helped me through some dark & hard time. Love her stories about Beaver & Left Brain, but I will always remember Baton. My prayers to Beaver & all the family, Toni & Norma Rose & Patrick.

Precious Lady. Thankyou. Thankyou Beaver for sharing your Mom with us all. Jeanne has encouraged me to 'find the humor' in everything. And it has certainly worked in sad times. Blessings🌻

I hope that we will still be able to review her stories here on YouTube and always love watching her from the back porch

So sad to hear Jeanne has gone to be with Left Brain. Will miss her youtube shows and her humour. Beaver so sorry, sending sympathy to you and your family Arohanui from NZ

she married her best friend, and she loved what she did for work and the people she worked with... We should all be so lucky to live as she did.

She will be sadly missed…..

She was wonderful. And to think she lived to make us laugh. What a gift. My favorite story is the one about the vanilla milkshake. Because I had a similar experience at a restaurant. As it unfolded I could only think of Jeane's story. It was a bond. For a little while I felt like I was her. Now I tell my story to my friends and we enjoy a bit of human humor. Rest in peace Jeanne Robertson. We will never forget you.

Thank you so much for sharing this with all of her fans. It has been a shock losing such a great lady, who filled our lives with laughter. Thank goodness we have her preserved on video for eternity. We can just revisit whenever we need a Jeanne Robertson fix.

I was saddened when I read about this phenomenal lady’s passing. The celebration of life was lovely and touching. She had such a tremendous impact on my life. I would listen to her stories and back porch talks on my commute to and from work and while sewing. She was quite an inspiration! Her stories of friends and family helped me see the joy and humor in my life and made me laugh - what a delight! I have shared her many stories with friends, family, and co-workers. She will be missed but her legacy will continue.

To Beaver and family. Loved your moms humour. Heartfelt condolences. Uk.

Jeanne’s DVDs helped my friend, gradually dying of cancer, to get through some rough times. When Jeanne came to Branson MO, I was lucky enough to get to tell her that and thank her. Jeanne Robertson made a difference in the lives of others. It’s a good way to be remembered.

@suzanthompson4414 5 years ago

Such a great lady an a pure heart. I had the pleasure of meeting her. I watched her memorial service on you tube. Was totally worth it. Beaver spoke and my heart just broke for him. He did a great job and his emotions got him a couple of times. My prayers for the family. Love this lady.
