Services: A celebration of life will be held at a later date. Memorials to Siteman Cancer Center https://siteman.wustl.edu/ or the Missouri Botanical Garden https://www.missouribotanicalgarden.org/ appreciated.
The world is a much quieter and boring place without you Jenn (with 2 n’s!) We met Jan 1987 & your tenacity and love of life have never changed or wavered. Your giggles equaled your feistiness but your huge heart was what made you sincere. In the last 18 month fight for life, you managed to remember my grandkids names & you asked me about them often. You checked in on me on days I was supposed to check in on you!….you said you were being proactive but I know better. I envied your green thumb & all the details you put into hosting a party. But now that you’re gone Jenn, I miss our friendship. RALPH. Cancun, synchronized swim, dance class, and later in life, chatting on your front porch at the Lou. Hasta luego Mi Amiga.
Family, Please accept my sympathy.
Jennifer was so special
“” One-of-A-Kind “” … Always a positive Bright Light & Sparkly.
She will be missed,
Sincerest Sympathy, Loyce
