Hi Mom how are you doing?
I am hanging in there as you know Lynda passed away and I hope she is up there with you and Seth.
I was very sad when Cindy told me she passed away but now maybe she can be happy with you and Seth.
I miss you so much and I love you so much.

I didn't realized how much Jennifer meant to me until I found out she was dieing. It broke my heart watching her go through the pain of cancer. She was so brave and never lost her sense of humor. I charish all the memories we had together and I don't think a day goes by that I don't think of her and miss her. We had lost touch for a few years and if I could take that back I would. She will be in my heart forever she was a good friend.

Dear Family and Friends,
I have been meaning to write, but keep putting it off. I just wanted to thank all of you for your thoughts and prayers.
On July 24, 2007, Jennifer took herself to Swedish Hospital as she was having pain in her chest and thought she was having a heart attack. After CAT scan, Ekg, PET scan it was determined she had cancer of the liver, pancreas and possible the brain. It was already in stage four and they gave her 3 to 6 months to live. What a shocker!! She decided she did not want Chemo and that was her decision so we went along with it. After a short while she signed up with Hospice. They were great, they came to her house three times a week, for meds and social information. Judi came in August to take her to Glenwood, Judi came back in December and stayed almost a month. Jennifer continually got worse after Judi left on the 23rd of December. Jennifer stayed with us from the 1st of December until January 10th. She got so weak that she kept falling and we had to keep her safe so we put her in Hospice of St. Johns. They changed her meds to what they felt was best to keep her alert (her wish) and yet keep her out of so much pain. The Saturday before she passed she said to me, "I love you, Mom and will you take care of Racheal". Then she said to Ron, "I love you, Dad and will you take care of Racheal?" We both agreed we would help Racheal and that Racheal would be okay. Then she said to Racheal, "I love you most of all" and Racheal told her she would be okay and she needed to go to the "light". Jennifer then said to me, "Mom will you meet me in Heaven?" and I told her I would cause we would be there sooner than most cause we are old.
She never spoke again. God took her to be "Safe in the Arms of Jesus"
on January 22nd, 2008. She is not in any more pain. We miss her dearly.
Thanks again for writing, and God Bless all of you.
Love,
Jeannine and Ron

I wish I could turn back the pages and have the time of my life with my sister Jennifer again.
I am so grateful we had the time together in December 2007 and I am so grateful we had ALL of our childhood together and our teenhood on up to when Jennifer let me change Racheal's diapers. She will never be forgotten and she will always be in my heart forever.

Jennifer,
I'll try to sign this guest book again. Entries are reviewed for inappropriate content and so far my entries have been denied. I was going down memory lane. The first time we met the day you and Racheal moved into your house and became neighbors with me and Seth. What it was like living next door to you for 20 years. (and I wonder why my entries have been denied.)
But honestly how you and I had a single Mom "survival" thing together whether we were being single at any given time or not. How you always made folks feel welcome in your home. How you were always willing to help. You'd let me borrow your car or a can of refried beans you didn't hesitate. How your daughter practically lived at our house for a number of years and what good friends she was with Seth. How much fun he had with you while you taught him how to manage pretrial services. How compassionate and supportive you were to me after he died.
And what a trooper you were when after I gave up the home telephone land line and when I wasn't home on two separate occasions how I called you at 1AM waking you up and asking you if you'd take your cell phone to my house and ask my friend there to call me. There's not too many people that would have been so absolutely gracious about such obnoxious requests.
How much Racheal misses you and how much she loves you and how my heart goes out to your mother and your family.
And how much I miss you girlfriend. I love you.

Jennifer,
About six months after Seth and I moved into our house, you and Rachael moved into yours one house
away. Rachael was about 4 years old at the time and Seth was 2. Racheal and Seth became good friends and she spent alot of time at our house for many years. We got along great.
You and I had a 'single Mom's survival thing' even when we weren't being single over the
years. I was home alot throughout the years but you were home more. It was rare when you weren't there. I know I'm not the only one who can say you made me feel welcome in your home and it wasn't a problem to knock and walk in.
You were like my own personal neighborhood watch too. You always knew what was up even if your house wasn't involved. If the police department was on our street, you would always know why.
You were very supportive after Seth died and I'm glad you knew how much I appreciated that. Now I have to get ready for your funeral. My heart goes out to your Mom and my heartfelt sympathies to your family. Racheal misses you so much, it's so sad. I'll keep my eye on her while you and Seth do the same. Remember what to tell him for me.
And Jennifer, I miss you.
Love,
Racheal Berg

Dear Momma,
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.
I miss you and I think about you all the time.
I know you are in a better playce and I hope you always watch over me and grandma and grandpa.
You are my heart and soul and I will try to be strong for you but I think I will need your help on that because its really hard to be strong without you.
I love you momma.

To The Degarmo Family, I am very sorry to hear about the passing of Jennifer. I have a lot of great memories of growing up across the street from all of you and the fun Jennifer and I had. I have thought of her often even though I had lost touch with her over the last few years. I hope you are all doing ok and you are in my thoughts and prayers.

To The DeGarmo Family:
My name is Terry (Jones)Bennett. I shared a house with Jennifer in 1978/1979. It seems like a life time ago. Jennifer was a fun person to be around. We had alot of good times together. At that time in our lives that was what seemed to be most important. I'm sorry to learn that Jennifer passed away. She was very young. My thoughts and prayers are with all of Jennifer's loved ones.
