Jenny was such a kind and caring person. Our lives will not be the same without her. It was a true pleasure to know and work with Jenny. She never ceased to amaze me with her wisdom and patience. I will miss seeing her in the office and working with her. Rest in Peace Jenny.

Jenny was such an inspiration to me and all those that she worked with. She gave of herself to students and staff, alike, helping us cope with our differences and the stresses of our world. She was just like a butterfly that you rejoice when alights upon your shoulder and must silently admire as it flies away. I am very sorry to lose Jenny this soon. I will pray that the wonderful memories of her will help to heal Scott and Jake, and all those that have loved Jenny.
Thank you, Jenny, for everything.

I will remember fondly how you always focused on what students CAN do and not on what they cannot. She was such a positive, caring, and gracious lady. I feel like I am a better person for knowing her, and I will smile as I think of her.

So saddened to hear that Jenny's life has ended at such a young age. She was part of such a happy time for me, working at Deaconess Medical Center together during the 'baby boom' years. She will be greatly missed by many, many people and I so regret not having kept in touch better.
Love to you, Scott and Jake.
Helen Salapka and family.

Jenny was so passionate about the students she worked with, loving them and continually seeking ways to help them live fuller lives. She was an inspiration to those of us who were privileged to work with her. Jenny showed that it is possible to be gentle and caring while still diligently advocating for those who cannot do so for themselves. She will be greatly missed!

Jenny was such a beautiful woman inside and out. She gave so freely of herself to all staff and students. She will be greatly missed and remembered as an intelligent caring educator.
