I am so saddened to hear of Jennifer’s passing. Too soon. She and I, together with Debbie Taber and Abbie Vincent, were on a bowling team together during middle school years. She was the sweetest person, and although I no longer live in the region, we sought each other out and shared the same table with classmates at our reunions. RIP - condolences to her family. ?

Jenny and I were roommates at ISU for 3 years. She was my best friend. We have kept in contact ever since 1971 and spoke often on the phone. My daughter Angie loved Jenny too! Jenny was the guest book greeter for her wedding over 20 years ago! We would talk about her two boys and her grandchildren and my daughter and my two grandchildren. We could talk for hours and pick up where we left off months later. She will be sadly missed. Love you Jenny! Until we meet in Heaven! Love and Hugs Lorna Reed Medley
