Jennifer was kind, caring, and tolerant. Jennifer enjoyed beautiful things and had an artistic flair. She loved cooking, NASCAR, sewing, country music, independence, cats, dogs, and driving.

Jennifer was born and raised in in Chicago, Illinois. In the mid-70's, Jennifer moved to Portland, Oregon, then returned to Chicago in the early 1980s.

Capitalizing on her entrepreneurial spirit. her love of driving, and her admiration for her father's trucking career, Jennifer founded an independent national delivery service. In the mid-2000's, Jennifer left the Chicago area, finally residing in Clarksville.

Jennifer was preceded in death by her father, Hilbert Deimling Howe and her mother, Doris Angela (nee Loerzel) Howe. She is survived by a brother, Gregory Deimling Howe, sister-in-law Kim (Becker) Howe of Gum Spring, Virginia, and sister Linda Deimling (Howe) Dienberg of Evanston and family, and a host of beloved cousins.

Arrangements are with Sykes Funeral Home, Clarksville, Tennessee. A celebration of Jennifer's life is planned later in Chicago. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made in Jennifer's name to Operation Fetch at: tinyurl.com/gandergifts

Jennifer was a classmate at St. Ignatius, but we went to different high schools. She was always very nice and as I remember, had a wonderful laugh. Glad to see she had a fulfilling life doing what she loved.

May she rest in peace.

Went to grade school with Jennifer. Lost contact a long time ago. When we were organizing a reunion in 2010, no one could locate her or maybe they did but she could not make it. RIP

My condolences to Jennifer´s family. I knew Jennifer from kindergarten (we are sitting together) in the kindergarten photo. We also attended Immaculata together. She was a warm, very nice person.
One time when she colored her hair it turned green and we joked that she was celebrating St. Patrick´s Day early. I´m glad to have known her. May God hold Jennifer in the palm of His hand.
