My deepest sympathies to Jennifer's friends and family for their loss. I worked with Jennifer a lot in the last five years as a Minneapolis City Council Member for the Phillips negihborhood. She was a fierce advocate for her neighborhood and the seniors that she worked for. She never accepted second best. Her voice was rarely silent, and she created vital change that improved the lives of others. I will miss her deeply.

It has warmed our hearts to see the tributes to Jennifer posted here and the many cards (over 100 so far) that we have received. In the nature of things one does not expect to have a child precede them in death.
We genuinely grieve her loss.
Sincerely,

We only knew Jennifer for a very short time. She resided in the lower level of Bryan's home. Jennifer was a very nice lady who loved her "Lucy".
Our very sincere heartfelt condolences to her family and friends.

I was so sorry to see the news about Jennifer. I remember all the good times that the Kohl's and Johnson's had as Jeff, Jennifer, Janna, Judy, Greg and I were growing up. My sympathy to you all. Linda (Johnson) Lodgaard

I worked very closely with Jennifer for the past six months so to have her suddenly gone is a shock and tremendously sad for so many of us. Her positive attitude was so wonderful to be around and I am proud to have known her. My heart goes out to all of those who feel her loss. God Bless!
