Surma: 79, of Elkhorn, WI passed away suddenly and peacefully at her home Wednesday July 18, 2018.  A native of Chicago, IL, Jeannette attended Rush Presbyterian St. Luke’s Nursing School and graduated as a registered nurse.  Her profession led to her meeting and ultimately marring her future husband John W.
