Jeannie Dreyfus, Community Member
Jean (Turnbow) Dreyfus was born in San Francisco to an electrician and a housewife, Bill and Dorothy Turnbow. The baby of the family by ten years, Jeannie was quite spoiled by her brother Bob and sister Judy, who went on to found the Turnbow Foundation.
Jeannie was lucky enough to follow her dream and travel around the country with Shipstad & Johnson’s Ice Follies in the early 1970s. Jean never had children of her own, but now brags three grandchildren from two stepsons. She has been married to her husband Blair for over 20 years.
It’s not an easy decision to leave the beautiful San Francisco Bay Area but Blair and Jean are transitioning and plan to eventually relocate full time to their beautiful home in Goodyear, Arizona. “I loved my sister very much and I’m so proud to be a part of her Turnbow Foundation.”
