Dear Jen I don't know what to say... We are all heart broken. You are not with us anymore. You are such a beautiful person with a more beautiful soul and heart. You changed our lives forever to share Milan with us. You made my sweet brother Marco Banis and my brother in law Alex Veldhuizen the most happy men on earth by choosing them as the perfect daddy's for your son. I agree as you always said, best choice ever. You also made my parents Wilma En Joop Banis the most proud grandparents and Erik and me the most proud oncle and aunt. Everything out of love. You ARE love!
You NEVER will be forgotten, know that. You will always stay Milan's loving mum. I will tell him all about you, what an amazing woman you are! That he had the best mum in the world. Thank you for all! I'm SO blessed we've met eachother, we spent time together. We had a great time. Forever in my heart. NEVER FORGET YOU! We will always love you!

Thankful for made our dream come true
Thankful for all your wise words
Thankful for knowing you
Thankful was a word we have often used the last 5 years: you were thankful to us for being great daddies' to Milan and we are thankful for the rest of our lives you being his mom and for choosing us. Jen, we had so much plans for this year. Probably a lot of people don't know or can imagine how deep our love to you was and still is..forever! We love you!
Your three musketeers,
Milan-Phoenix, Marco and Alex
