Jennie Porter Obituary
She was born April 28, 1942, daughter of the late Allan and Margaret (Atherton) Davis.
She graduated from Wallace High School in Idaho. She then met her soul mate, Homer, after moving to Wellsboro.
Jennie enjoyed her time camping, quilting, and especially the time she spent with her family. She worked for years at the Tunkhannock School District as a cafeteria worker, and more recently as an employee of the Interfaith Store in Montrose.
She is also survived by her two daughters and son-in-law: Lisa and Andrew Kudzinowski of Moosic, and Roxanne Porter of Montrose; three grandchildren: Jonathan, Jessica and Jordyn Kudzinowski; uncle Harry Atherton of Beaver Dams, N.Y.; aunt and uncle, Florence and Ronnie Comstock of Wellsboro; and nieces, nephews, and cousins.
A Memorial Service will be held at 1 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 29, at the Montrose United Methodist Church, with Rev. Jane M. Pykus officiating. Friends may call on the family from 11 a.m. until the time of the service at the church. Interment in the spring in the Montrose Cemetery.
The family would like to thank Dr. Lowry of the Guthrie clinic, and the loving care and compassion from the staff at Hospice Community Care in Dunmore. Donations in Jennie's name can be made to the Interfaith Store, Public Ave., Montrose.

Dear Homer and family,
We were so saddened to hear of your wife's passing. You are in our hearts and prayers and you have our deepest sympathies. Your loving memories of all the fun and loving times will sustain you through the time to follow. We were so sad we couldn't be there in person from your barbeshop family, but we are in Florida. We are thinking of you daily. If you should need anything, please feel you could always call us. My fondest memories are of you, Jennie, and your daughter helping me and Fred out at the Inter-chapter night in Montrose. You all were so appreciated by me.
Your dear barbershop friends,
Art and Shirley Williams
