I'm laying here missing you so much it hurts. Please continue to be the amazing guardian angel that you are. I wish so badly that I could hug you. Thank you for being there all those years. I never really got a chance to tell you just how much you mean to me...but I have a feeling you realize it. I know I will see you again and when I do, I'm going to need that hug.

March 29, 2011

Jobeth,
I miss you and love you so much. It's been almost four years, and sometimes I still can't believe you're gone. I know that you are watching over all of us and am very thankful for that. I would do anything just to see your smiling face right now. I am so blessed that I had such an amazing person in my life.

Four years does not diminish the sense of loss and the continual heartache because you are not with us. You will be forever loved and cherished.

HAPY BIRTDAY TO MY MOMMIE I MISS YOU AND I AM BUIDING A ROCKET SHIP IO COME AND HUG AND KISS YOU I MAY BRING TIMOHY WITH ME IF HE IS GOOD

Jo Jo,

It’s hard to believe that it has been 3 years since I last heard your amazing laugh, or heard you tell someone exactly what was on your mind (of course that is what you’re known best for). I miss hanging out with you at family parties. I miss working with you and talking about how our days are going. I miss the phone calls about random silly stories, or you calling to tell me who you told off last. I miss knowing I could always count on you to have my back, or give me advice. I miss you yelling and being excited to steal everyone’s gifts on Christmas, but most of all, I miss my best friend, my cousin, my inspiration. Most people try their whole lives to impact just one person, but you Jobeth, have impacted and inspired us all. You make me want to see the best in every situation, and be the best I can be. You make me realize that “drama” is unimportant, but family and friends are the most significant things we have in our lives. I have also realized that while people say you “missed out” on a lot of things in your future and in Jayla’s future... I know that is not true. You will see your baby’s first day of school, you will be there when she graduates, you will be there when she gets married, and you will be at the birth of your first grandchild. While we may not be able to see you, I know you are here with us each and every day! Please know and understand how much you are truly missed and loved. There is not a day that goes by that you are not on my mind and in my heart. Thank you for inspiring me to be the best that I can be, and for making me see the true importance in life. Most of all, thank you for being you <3 No matter what, I will always be your “little” cousin...

February 7, 2010

Dear Jobeth,
I miss you more and more each day that goes by. I am writing just to let you know that we always are thinking about you and that you are in our hearts and prayers everyday. I was with Jayla the other day and she reminds me so much of you. She has that Jobeth aint gonna take no crap attitude that we all know and love :). Mary told me Jayla tried building a spaceship so that she can come bring you home from heaven but your still here with us everyday. We miss you dearly and think of you daily. Until I see you again one day I am missing you.
All of my love,
Mallory

Happy Mother's Day on what would have been a happy day for you. Your daughter is a magnificent 2 1/2 year old who reminds me so much of you when you were the same age! I know you are looking down on her keeping her safe. She is surrounded by love!

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

My deep heart condolences to the Fenner and Olson family. Jobeth's soul is with our Lord. I didn't know her and, wish I did. My sister, Mrs. Timothy Fenner told me about Jobeth. I was very saddened. I saw her picture online and it only made me more sad. My heart and prayers go out to you. May you find peace.

Jobeth,
Its been over 3 months now and I think about you every day. Some days I get really sad, some I smile thinking about the way you could light up a room when you walked in and others I get really angry. I try to avoid the angry days because that doesn't help and I want to remember you with all happy thoughts. Your mom sent me this picture of you with my girls at your baby shower. Once again you with a big smile!!!! Love you and really really miss you.

in everyones life, you meet that once in a lifetime friend. the one person you can call and tell anything and you trust they wont tell anyone and wont judge you. the person you call and say i need help and they will drop everything to come and be at your side; yet they never ask for anything in return. this friend completes you and without them you would not be who you are today..

jobeth was my once in a lifetime friend. without her i wouldnt be who i am today and i wouldnt know who i was before. she made me who i am. i am so lucky and privliged to have known her and be able to call her my best friend. ever since we were little girls shes known how to brighten the darkest of days. to me, she is not gone because she will live on forever in my heart and in my memory.

timmy and amy, you are two of the best people/parents i have had the privlige of knowing. timmy *aka dad number 2* i cant put into words how jobeth loved you. she loved to call herself "daddys girl". she spoke so highly of you and knew she could find refuge in your arms. as tough as she could be sometimes, she was still proud to call herself your little girl.
and amy, you truly were more than a mother to her. you were a confident, a best friend. what a beautiful person you raised. her big heart came from you.

mary, i love you so much girl~ you are the spitting image of your sister and thats a compliment! i know no one can ever take her place but know that i am here for you anytime anyday no matter what. you and i will be at steak n shake everyday this summer.. i know youll be a wonderful big sister to annie and timmy.. just like she was to you...

jobeth left behind the most beautiful baby i have ever seen. ill never forget when she called me from the hospital and said "hey, i need a middle name i cant think of one" i said, how about marie? she said "ok thats perfect love u bye"

im certainly going to miss her vivacious, spontaneous self.
but ill miss the sensitive, selfless jobeth more than anything.
ill miss her laugh and her smile.
i know ill never be the same without her, but i am so much better for having known her.

olsons, i love you guys so much
you are so strong and wonderful
hang in there, shes watching over you all smiling

im here always..

jobeth, promise me youll open up those gates for me when i enter heaven. i love you, i miss you, not a day will pass i wont think of you. the pain may get easier but the hole in my heart will remain for all my life. love you sis, be good up there ok? im sure you have kicked God out of his chair by now and told him whos boss...its not goodbye, its see you soon.. love you love you love you! best friends forever jb....

Jobeth,
From the time we were little, you have been so much more than a cousin to me. You have been my bodyguard, a shoulder to cry on, someone who always made me laugh (not only with the silly things you did but also by just hearing your amazing laugh) and most of all a great friend. You were someone who I grew up with and always felt so close to. From the times we played tom and huck (no one will understand that but you) or Olson Café, to working at KB Toys and American Eagle together, you have always held a special place in my heart. When I look back on some memories that we’ve shared there are many that stick out… remember when we worked at KB together and you decided that you were tired so you needed a nap…and instead of just sleeping when you went home like any normal person, you decided to go take a nap in the stuffed animals for an hour until Anitra finally realized you were gone…or the time you climbed up into the tents on the top shelf of the store (I think it was Dora the Explorer if I remember correctly) and hiding so no one could see you so when you say “Hello” to the customers they said hi back but never knew where the greetings were coming from or how excited you were to get that blender for Christmas that you threatened the whole family so we wouldn’t pick that present..haha..…no matter where we were or what we were doing if I was with you I always had a smile on my face. I think now God realized how special you were and decided he like to laugh and have a good time to and they best way for the to happen was for him to take you with him. I know grandma and papa are taking good care of you, and I can only imagine the stories you are telling them. I want you to know the you were so very special to everyone who knew you and the my memories of you will never be forgotten and instead they will be shared with everyone, especially Jayla. Your amazing baby girl has taken after you so much…she is beautiful and always smiling. I know as she grows your kindness, laughter, sillyness and love will develop in her and she will become more like you everyday. When we look at her, Jobeth, we see you. Through Jayla, we will always have a piece of you. As I said goodbye to you today I realized, you are in a better place. A place were you can watch over us and there is nothing that can hurt you. I promise you that your little girl will get to know you, no only through the silly stories I will tell her, but from what we all will. You have so many people that love and care about you and I don’t want you to ever forget that. What has happened has made me realize you must live life to the fullest, take advantage of the times when you get hugs from an amazing family, and see how grateful we should be to have been able to spend 19 amazing years will you. I will be looking forward to the day we meet again. So will that I’m not going to say goodbye…but see you later…I love you Jobeth…may you always be smiling down on us. I love you JoJo<3

You are like a falling star who has finally found her place next to another in a lovely constellation, where you will sparkle in the heavens forever.

We are so sorry to hear about Jobeth, it was like yesterday when we lived next door and I babysat for you. I saw Jobeth and many resent occasions at Eat N' Park. One time before she went on Maternity leave and she was so excited about the baby and that you guys were excited to and how Tim wanted to name the baby Cash. And then again recently on Saturday night. She spoke so highly of you and really loved you and Jayla. She was so fully of life. It is going to be hard not seeing her at Eat N' Park. She will always be in our hearts and will be truly missed.

The Olson Family
Life is supposed to prepare you for many things, but never for the death of a child. Words of condolence seem inadequate because
no one can feel your specific grief
and sorrow. We first met Jobeth when
she was just a small child visiting
her grandparents. Through pictures
and summer visits, we watched her
grow into a beautiful and fun loving
young lady. Now we feel our own loss
and offer you our deepest sympathies. We do have wonderful memories of Jobeth and we hope your memories of her will lessen your
pain and comfort you.

Donna Tagg

Your family has my sympathy, I can't imagine what your family is going though. When I heard this sad news on the television my heart went out to your daughter and her child. Last year my daughter, a mother of a two year old, suddenly became ill and we thought we were going to loss her. I will never forget that feeling, greatfully she pulled through. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. God bless.

Olson/Fenner/Agardy Families,
We'll never understand why Jobeth was taken so early but thankfully Jayla was left as a beautiful reminder. My deepest sympathy is extended to all Jobeth's family & friends and I am grieving along with all of you. God Bless you!

I can't express my feelings enough about your loss. Losing a child is the most devastating thing in this world. You see I too lost a child and the feeling never goes away. Time does heal all wounds and will make life bearable but you must never forget her smile, her laugh or just the funny things she use to do. Just remember Jobeth will also be you.

Dear Olson Family,
I didn't know Jobeth, but I know Mary Therese and Annie and know what lovely children you raise. Annie has talked so much about her big sister and little niece that I feel as if I know them. God bless you through this difficult time and the times to come. I hope you can find comfort in knowing how many people care and are praying for you.

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Olson

Two years ago, I met Jobeth through my dear nephew Jamie. She was a very pleasant girl who will be truly missed by everyone. You all have my deepest sympathy.

To the family of Jobeth Olson,
I did not know your daughter nor did I know your family. What I do know, is that as the mother of a 10 month old, if anything were to happen to me, I would have no worries in heaven knowing that the love of my life was in my family's hands. Although nothing can bring back your daughter, a little happiness can be grasped knowing that you can create memories with her daughter, you get the pleasure of "introducing" her to her mommy in ways that she'll thank you. Your daughter will be looking after you always. She'll be with you every step of every day. I went through a loss like this 4 years ago. The love you have for that person never goes away, but the days do get easier as you're able to allow yourself to replay memories in your mind, and look at pictures :) Your daughter was a beatiful woman, and God has a plan for her. You're all in my family's thoughts, and prayers... God bless you all.

Dear Olson Family,
First, know that you are in my prayers. But more importantly, take comfort in knowing that God is with you and it is His friends that he shares His suffering with. As a mother of a 20 year old son, I cannot imagine the feeling of losing your child. But Jobeth is now with God and asking Him to bless her family. Please lean on our Lord and he will support you.
