Janine was born on November 20, 1948, to George and Dorothy (King) Jackson. She graduated from Three Rivers High School in 1966 and attended Western Michigan University. She resided in White Cloud, Michigan for several years and worked at the Probate Court for Newago County until she moved to Kalamazoo and was employed by the law firm of Howard and Howard as a legal secretary. In 1986, she married Andrew R. Lenderink who survives. After 13 years with the law firm, she became a realtor with ReMax of Kalamazoo and later transferred to Preferred Carlson, now Berkshire Hathaway Home Services. Janine was a wonderful person in many ways and was always there for her family and friends. She loved to garden and had a passion and talent for decorating. HGTV just lost their number one fan. Those who knew her loved her sense of humor, infectious laugh and smile. She will be forever in our hearts.
