So sorry to hear of Jennie's passing. I only knew her in the course of her employment, but took pleasure in her company and really enjoyed talking to her. She was so proud of her son joining the army & had a new story to tell every time I saw her. God be with you all in your time of sorrow.

Clara and David, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers at this time. Your mother was such an inspiration. She was a joy to be around, and her laughter was contagious! She always had a smile on her face, while we walked relay for life. I will miss the beautiful friendship she offered to me although we normally only saw each other at the annual relays! We were truly blessed!
