Erik and Family,
l am so sorry to hear about Jenny. I know how sad it must be for you all. Have fond memories of the neihborhood kids we all grew up with and was really happy to see the two of you marry. She was such a nice girl! Kept tabs through the years of how you all were doing with bits of news through Craig or Lauren. My heart goes out to all of Jenny's big, wonderful family. Lord Jesus, keep them in your loving arms. Sincerely, Elaine (Conner) Emler.
