i didn't even know you were gone until i found this obituary. i don't even know how you died. maybe i never will. you and i didn't always agree. we were both self-destructive people. i know you didn't feel the same way about me that i felt about you. but i loved you jen. i didn't realize how much until now. and now that you're gone i just wish i would've had another opportunity to tell you that. wherever you are now, there's a piece of me there with you. i'll never forget you

I met Jen years ago working together at Scottish Rite Park. Jen had so many beautiful qualities. What I will always carry with me is her sarcastic and silly way of always making me laugh!! My many thoughts & prayers to all of Jens family and all the people she touched in her time on earth. Rest easy Jen. Love you forever!!!

Cinder, and family,
My heart is heavy for you in this time of need and my prayers are with you and your family. I loved working with Jen at Valley View, we made a great team. She was so bubbly and had a great personality. And when I meet her mom for the first time I see where she got it from. If there is anything please let me know. Peace and love for your family,
From Jamie
