I will never forget Jen's beautiful smile. She lit up a room whenever she entered it. I will never forget her. Breaks my heart that her boys lost their wonderful mom. I know Carol lost her baby & will be forever missing a piece of herself. Her strength is amazing. Sending all my
love to her friends & family.

I'm sorry to hear of Jen's passing. Sense the third grade when I first met her, she was one of the nicest I had met there. Even in time as many people had changed, Jen had always remained that good hearted person I'd known.

Nothing can make this loss any less tragic for everyone who was touched by Jen's beautiful spirit. I wish I could offer some words to you that would bring comfort, but I don't know any could. All I can say is "thank you" for bringing this an amazing women into the world and into my life. She was a blessing to everyone who shared her love & laughter. Her strength, courage & her beautiful boys will be her legacy. As a mother, my heart breaks. As her friend, I will miss her smile & spunk. I will never forget her.
