Jennifer Lee Jarrell

1953 - 2013

In loving memory of Jennifer Lee
Jarrell. May 31, 1953 - March 18, 2013
Jennifer was a Mendocino Coast
resident for 23 years. She passed at home in the arms of her husband and love of 45 years, Robert R. Jarrell of Fort Bragg. She experienced great joy because she was surrounded by her loving family at the end.
She was the only child of Earl and Goldyn Drawbaugh. Jennifer Lee Drawbaugh was born in Columbus, Neb., on May 31, 1953.
She is survived by her loving mother, Goldyn Ann; and wonderful stepfather, Dick Leibschwager, of Columbus, Neb. Also surviving her are: The Bebensee family: daughter, Joyce; son-in-law, Rick; granddaughter, Brittney (age 17); grandsons, Kenny (age 15), and Ricky (age 11), of Walker, Iowa. The Jarrell family: son, Robert E.; daughter-in-law, Arie; and grandsons, Ashton (age 7) and Alex (age 4), currently of Redmond, Ore.; her daughter, Marilyn, and granddaughter, Marissa (age 3), of Fort Bragg. Extended family: Eugene and Linda Drake, and Galen and Leona Demits of Fort Bragg; and Cory
Fullbright, of Ukiah.
She was love, light in the darkness, and all things good. She was a smile, a warm embrace. She enjoyed laughter, love and the gentle snoring of a sleeping child. She loved the beauty and majesty of nature. She disliked conflict and deceit. The world is, and many people are, better due to her kind spirit and guiding love.
