To Mom From Jennifer.
Theres a place for me in Heaven
when I decide to go
I'll jump into the wind
when the wind decides to blow.
The other sides so lovely
so please dont have no fear
you'll feel my arms around you
when the breeze blows thru your hair.
So please dont weep or shed a tear
we'll meet again in a little while,
when you think of me please dont cry
instead remember me with a smile.

I only knew Jennifer for a short period of time, and she was there for me when I was down and out, she made me laugh and I will never forget the way she talked of her children, I am sure she is going to forever watch over them. I am sorry for your loss.

To the family,
I knew Jennifer since way back in Raymer Elementary school & words can not express the utter shock & sadness that Im feeling. I simply can not begin to imagine the pain you are all going through. Jennifer was someone's daughter, mother, sister and friend. Jennifer and all of you remain in my thought and prayers daily.
