While it has been a few years since her passing, it can be so difficult losing a mother, pillar of our lives. May her spirit live forever in peace and love!
I remember meeting Jennie only briefly, when she came to visit Cheryl at our house off campus at Santa Clara University. Your mom filled our freezer with meats and cupboards with goodies. I remember she had a lovely smile and an intelligent energy, and warm disposition.
May you feel her spirit with you always.

Dear Jennies family, Jennie and I had a special bond. We met at the wedding of our oldest children Cheryl and Bob. Even though we were many miles apart, we kept in touch after the wedding. We had so many similar life experiences and through many long phone conversations, got to know each other well. We shared many good and bad times over the years and I am going to miss her very much.
She loved all of you very much. I could tell how much you all loved and watched over her. Keep your wonderful family together and continue to love and care for each other.
My special prayers are for you Jennie until we meet again.

Dear Allec Family, Your mother was my best friend, we laughed together, cried together, never agreed on anything but we each knew the love we had for each other was forever. Pregnant with Brad at all the games and events at St Francis, so fun, with her hat to block the sun. Renovating St Francis Church, she directed and did such a great job. Her Faith was so strong and she displayed that everyday of her life. I do not believe there was a thing that wonderful women could not do, no matter how big the project. I miss her dearly and I am so grateful to have had such a beautiful friend and I know she will be watching over all of you from Heaven. God bless you all and thank you for sharing your Mom with so many, especially me. Love you Jennie - can't wait to talk to you in the future and I am sure you have organized Heaven.

Jennie was a mainstay and an inspiration as a faithful member of St. Francis and its various organizations. I've missed her these past several years after she left Yuma. She was an asset to our community and I was pleased to have her as a colleague. God bless all the Allec family.

On behalf of the whole Miguel and Ramona Williams Family... Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you as you mourn the loss of your beautiful and loving Mother. The childhood memories of St. Francis of Assisi will remain with us. They were a time when parents were ever present at the school and our lives were blessed by their involvement in each of our lives.
May the peace of Christ Jesus be present with each of you as you move forward in this journey called life. May her soul and the souls of all the faithfully departed rest in peace. Amen
