Carly Jensen Obituary
November 2, 1989 - May 6, 2019
Carly Asha Jensen, 29, formerly of Grand Junction, died May 6, 2019, in Hotchkiss, Colorado.
Carly was born November 2, 1989, in Calcutta, India and adopted in 1991 by her parents, Barbara and Dave Jensen.
She is preceded in death by her mother, Barbara, and sister, Melinda Amori of Phoenix. She is survived by parents, Dave and Karen Jensen of Grand Junction, and brothers, Donald Jensen of Salt Lake City, UT, and Shawn Amori of Lakewood, CO.
Carly was the mother of three beautiful children, Vyolet, Tyson, and Kai.
Carly was a precocious and talkative child who was always bubbling with energy and a smile for everyone. She grew up in the church and always held to her faith through many challenges she faced.
Carly's passions were art, baking, cooking, reading and music. Her fondest memories were of spending time with family at Lake Powell and she loved sharing photos of family and friends.
She is survived my many aunts, uncles, nieces, and nephews who will miss her dearly. Carly was grateful for the many faithful friends who journeyed with her through all of the ups and downs of life.
A memorial service to celebrate her life will be held at a future date.
Memorial contributions may be made in her honor at Little Flower Maternity Home, P.O. Box 270181, Louisville, CO 80227. www.littleflowermaternity.org.

Remember
Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.

Music, when soft voices die
Music, when soft voices die,
Vibrates in the memory
Odours, when sweet violets sicken,
Live within the sense they quicken.
Rose leaves, when the rose is dead,
Are heaped for the beloved's bed;
And so thy thoughts, when thou art gone,
Love itself shall slumber on.
By Percy Bysshe Shelley
