jennifer. She was a great person. And she will be very missed. And never forgotten. Even with the battle she was going through. When we would see her and ask how she was she always had a smile on her face and would always say im doing good. We all love and miss you. Your neighbor

Rita and Sophie,
We are so sorry for such a great and sad loss. It just seems like yesterday I was spending my summers in Charleston and Myrtle Beach having laughs with Jennifer. She will be greatly missed and never forgotten. We love you both and you will be in our prayers.
