Dear Ginger,

I am so very sorry at the loss of your mom. It's so difficult to believe that we are at the age that this can happen. Your mom was a beautiful and sweet lady. I remember staying at your house when we were little girls, maybe 9 or 10. Your parent's room was right across the hall from yours and Karin's so I wasn't scared. I only remember being scared of the cat. My heart goes out to you, Karin and Steve.

Dear Steve, Karin and Ginger,
I was so saddened when I heard about your loss. I loved Jennifer, she always had a smile on her face and made me laugh till I cried. She had stopped in my office last Friday with concerns of a stray cat, and that was our Jen, always taking care of others needs first. I will miss her immensely and I will never forget her. Your entire family is in my thoughts and prayers at this time and if I can be of any help, please, do not hesitate to call on me.

Since the birth of you two girls and her marriage to Steve...Jennifer has been a Guardian Angel to all three of you. She loved you so sweetly and warmly. She will always be very close at hand to you as long as you are here and her soul will wrap her warm love around you as tightly as she can. Jennifer has always had a big smile, a huge laugh and a warm hug for everyone....we have shared wonderful memories and great times together and traveled all over creation having fun and fellowship...and if you were luck enough you got to share in some real Jenniferisms every now and then...You wil be sadly missed but fondly remembered for a very long time...Love you Sweetly!!!!

I am so sorry to hear about Jennifer. I think about the good times we had at work. She always made a stressful day a better day.

I was so saddened to hear of Jennifer's passing. I got to know Jennifer over the last year through her close friend, Red Palmer. Jennifer would accompany Red to some of our "just girls" get togethers. Jennifer was so much fun to be around, and I will always remember what a HUGE Carolina fan she was! Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with the family.

Jennifer and my mother spent the Christmas of '66 in Mullins hospital having babies. Ginger and I were born 1 day apart. The day that I gave birth to my son, in the midst of severe pain, Jennifer appeared in the labor room and said "now you know what Gaile & I went through", then she chuckled. Even though Ginger, Karin and I have been friends our entire lives, Jennifer's house was always one I could go to and feel welcomed and get lots of parental advise. She will certainly be missed by all who knew her.
