A few years after I retired, I joined a senior bowling league and had the privilege of being a teammate of Jennie. It was the beginning of a long relationship of lunches and state tournaments. Jennie was a wonderful captain and organizer. She, Muriel Dando, Laura Ford and I made a great team with Jennie outscoring us as she was a seasoned and accomplished scorer, yet she always urged us on. Bowling was her passion. We all had a great time. cheering each other on. Jennie and Brenda had a beautiful closeness, and Brenda has always been a devoted and loving daughter, paying attention to minute details that gave her Mom much delight. May all those special efforts give you peace, Brenda as your Mom now rests in Eternal Rest.
