How utterly sad I am to learn about this. JennyMarie was a strong, beautiful woman, courageous like a lioness. The world is a better place for having had her in it. Loved her. Sending strength, light and love to all those who grieve her.

To the Family of Jenny Marie,

Jenny Marie was a student of mine at Alverno College. She was a force to be reckoned with when she made her presentations!

While I can only speak for myself, I know that she will be sorely missed. I hope that you will find comfort in the impact that she had on so many of the lives of her friends and students here at Alverno.

Jenny Marie,

Wow! The most kindest, funniest & craziest person you will ever meet. She was my robot partner. She was the type of person you could be yourself around. She introduced me to Sailor Jerry and the best guacamole I've ever had. She was just a wonderful person all around. It was truly a pleasure and priviledge to meet and know Jenny. I will truly miss you! We know you are look at us from Heaven smiling and doing the robot. We love you!

My heart and prayers go out to the family. Jenny is special to a lot of us, but I'm sure she was something even more to you all.

To my dear friend Jenny what can i say. You are the most creative, vibrant, colorful, funny, sweet, caring, witty, energetic, loving and most beautiful friend I have ever had. We used to run crazy back in school, laughin and jokin and especially singing. I think we were in the wrong department though. Remember when I used to make you crow like a rooster in the morning, yes every morning even when you were mad. We used to sing I got bacon and eggs between my legs. You were there to get me through the day and I the same. I truly wish things could've been different. They say graduation and moving out is supposed to be the best time of your life. If I would have known they would be so wrong I would have never left.. I truly hope you forgive me for I have failed as your friend. You were always there. I love you Jenny

Dear Family,
My sister and I had the honor and pleasure of teaching Jenny in elementary and middle schools.
She was determined,dedicated and talented.
We all had time in our lives to know, nurture, and encourage her to be the woman she became.
I am grateful to God for allowing me this experience.
Stay strong and remember that God is with you.
