Kevin and Cassandra,
Words are inadequate to express the depth of sorrow I felt upon learning of Alex's passing. She will be remembered forever in my heart as that beautiful, sweet and loving 3,4,5 year old little girl, but I know she grew to be a wonderful young woman. May God comfort you in this time of great sorrow.
All My Love,
Kim Traeger and Family

I never had the pleasure of meeting Alexandra but my son Seth Jennings and his girlfriend Micah Wiley know both her and David well. Her passing has left them devastated as I am sure it has with everyone who knew her.
Having a daughter so close in age and seeing the pain on my sons and Micah's face only brings the realization of what can happen in a blink of an eye. Seth speaks so highly of Alex. He describes her as kind, giving, sweet and a supportive wife to David. He speaks of their travels and how they have accomplished so much in their young lives. It sounds to me like Alex lived more in her 27 yrs. than most do in a lifetime. Hold on to that.
Many lives are richer for having known Alex. The void she leaves now is lessened by the knowledge that they have been blessed to have known her if even for just a short while.
I know you will hear many wonderful stories about her during the coming days and weeks. Please take pride and comfort in these many reminders of the profound impact she had on those whose lives she touched. You were so blessed for 27 years. David not as long but his life was just as impacted. I pray he realizes that she will always be with him, to go on and live his life as she would want him to live it. Living the best life he can would be the ultimate tribute to her memory. May God bring you strength, comfort and the peace that passes all understanding.
Cynthia Jennings
