What a wonderful brave lady who will be missed by those who knew her.
She and Loren impressed me so much. They made the effort to do things together, when it would have been easier to have stayed home.
Wonderful lady, wonderful couple.
God Blessed us with a person who set an example on how to do things

Loren, Matt and Jennie,

I was so saddened yesterday morning when Todd called to tell me. I called your cell phone, Matt, but got your recording. Please know that all of you are in our thoughts and prayers. Wish we could be there with you.
