I often look out my window, looking for your dear sweet face, wondering when will I see you again. Today is Oct 28 2023, today I looked out my window looking for you and saw your family moving furniture, so instantly I took to Google to search your name and I find your obituary. I am so sorry Jennifer. You were and are still one of the sweetest people I have ever met. I remember the day we got our kitten and I brought her to you to show you and you picked the perfect name for her, Angel Kitty. We miss you my dear sweet neighbor and friend. I no longer worry about your well being, I now know you are with God. May you rest in peace beautiful soul. Love you. My deepest condolences to the family.

Jennifer was a sweet lady. Before she got sick she was faithful in attendance at Tates Creek Christian church, Lexington, Ky. She loved our Lord, fought the good fight & persevered up to the end! Very sad of what she endured but we know she is in the presence of our Lord!
