Mrs. Jennie B. Cantrell, 98, of West Point, left us, surrounded by her family and friends on January 11, 2024, at North Mississippi Medical Center in West Point. Jennie was born on July 22, 1925, in West Point, to the late John and Addie Mitchell Landin. A light from our lives is gone, a voice we loved is still, and a place within our hearts that can never be filled. Jennie had a life well lived. She was full of beauty, strength, and grace.
