On April 18, Darrel and Jen were married at Ascension Lutheran Church in Rochester, surrounded by family and friends. Jen and Darrel had so many plans for their future. They looked forward to picnics in Rochester's many parks, getting to know the area, and seeing the leaves changes. Jen was especially looking forward to seeing snow for the very first time. Since Jen loved dogs, they were thinking about getting a dog of their own. Jen planned on becoming a member of Ascension. She knew the forgiving love of Jesus and trusted in Him as her Savior. Little did anyone know, she would see Jesus face to face so soon. Jen is survived by her mother, two brothers, one sister, and many nieces, nephews and cousins. She is also survived by her beloved husband, Darrel. Darrel misses Jen terribly and has a broken heart. But he knows that he will see Jen again in heaven. Jen's funeral will be at Ascension Lutheran Church on Tuesday, June 10, at 6:00 PM. Jen's family and friends will gather to celebrate God's grace in Jen's life and all the blessings He gave her. There will be a meal following the service.
