Jenny was such a wonderful friend that I met while working on the Mother/Baby Floor at MMC back in 1994. One of the sweetest ladies around and sometimes we prayed together. So glad I saw her in the store about a month before she passed. She was blessed with a super kind family and I never heard a cross word out of her mouth. I miss you Jenny❤ RIP

Words cannot express my sadness in Jenny’s passing. My prayers are with the family at this time. Find comfort in each other and in the One who will one day wipe every tear from their eyes; for there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain.

When we met Jenny she was a little on the quiet side, but we could tell that she was a lovely Christian lady as we started talking. She is now in heaven sitting on the right side of God and the heavenly angels! Our condolences to the family members. God bless you all and remember you have wonderful memories of Jenny to cherish forever. AMEN!

My deepest sympathy to Jenny’s family. I had the privilege of working with Jenny for many years at MMC. She was a friend, not just a coworker. We were part of a comradeship that enjoyed getting together at each other’s homes. In later years, we would run into each other at estate sales and reconnect. I am so sorry that we lost touch in these past few years. Fly with the Angels Amiga. Love you always!
