Jennifer was such an integral part of Pine Grove and I was so fortunate to have known and worked with her when I was there. She always had a smile or a joke and just took care of all the Drs. She loved her family and was so proud of all their accomplishments. We often shared stories and party tips. She will be so missed. Rest in peace sweet lady. Teresa Mulvihill
