Jeanette A. Bushard was born on May 3, 1937, in New Ulm to Joseph and Angelica (Seifert) Bushard. She was united in marriage to LeRoy Domeier on November 3, 1954, at the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity in New Ulm. Together, they were blessed with six children, whom they raised in New Ulm.
Jeanette worked as a baker at Stan’s Red Owl, the Country Store/Cash Wise, and Pioneer Catering at MLC. She was fondly remembered by many local children for sharing leftover donut pieces; kids would often wait outside the bakery door for their special treat.
She loved her family deeply and enjoyed having them all together. She cooked lunch every Sunday for anyone who was able to make it. Her love poured into her food as her meals tasted like no other. In her free time she enjoyed baking, reading a good murder mystery, knitting, mushroom hunting, and her annual vacation to the lake. She will always be remembered for her schmierkuchen and her love for good gossip. Jeanette was a proud Turner Lady for 56 years, a member of the Holy Trinity church choir, and a member of the American Legion Auxiliary.
She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew her.
Blessed be her memory.
