Jen- I'm sure by now...you have found my Mom- You told her I am doing great, You gave her a HUGE hug and told her that Paul and Matt are awesome and take wonderful care of me. You told her such wonderful things....
I know you did this, because this is the kind of thing I saw you do, every time I was with you and you introduced people in your life....to others. Take Care my wonderful friend- I know you are in God's hands and there is no better place to be.
Peace be with you and your friends and family will hold Steph and your Mom tight.....I was taught you have to have hope.....when you run out of hope.....you will have your Faith- That is the foundation of who we are.
Peace be with you my friend......Jan

JT's Christmas Card

Tess Victory

September 13, 2013

Mrs. Taylor and Stephie (as you both will always be to me), I do not have words...I just look at JT's beautiful picture, think of all the great memories and her wonderful personality. She was an Angel on earth so I guess God needed another one in Heaven. So many great times with JT and you all in the trailer park and elementary school. Thank you for those memories.

I am sorry I could not be there today (as you know I am in WV). However, this morning as I was working I was searching my computer for my electronic signature and I typed in the words"signature" for a search and I was SHOCKED to find what came up. No, not my scanned signature. But the signature JT used for her Christmas Cards she sent. I knew then she was with us in Spirit. I will never forget my dear friend. God Bless!

I met Jen on Facebook as I am a friend of Tracey. Jen had an amazing personality and was so full of life. The Good Lord will keep her in His Arms. It is His turn to thrill with having her with Him. She, and you all will remain in my thoughts and prayers. I am so sorry for your loss!

I wish we could be there with you tomorrow. You are, as you well know, now forever part of my "family of choice." I miss my BFF so much and though I know she will be with all of us always, I also know it will be a very, very long time before the pain of this loss becomes anything less than excruciating. I love you both very, very much and though Holly and I cannot be there tomorrow in person, we will be there with you in your hearts. I hold you gently in my thoughts and prayers and carry you in my heart. Tell our Jennie one more time for me how very much I loved her and what an incredible blessing she was in my life...tell her I miss her terribly...and tell her she'd better be keeping a protective eye on all of us!

Dear Camillia, Stephanie and Tracey,
I went to grade school with Jennifer and I enjoyed the time spent with her. I am very sorry for your loss so soon in life. Telling you God had a purpose for all this does not make it easier or help with understanding the situation. I'm sorry that she couldn't stay here longer. I'm sorry to hear of her leaving so early when I think her staying in this world would have made it much better for everyone. I hope you find peace and keep her close to your heart at all times. Her smile is and always will be contagious! Sincerely, Paula J. (Neville) Crashley

I went to high school with Jennifer and am so sorry to hear about your loss. I remember Jennifer was passionate and enthusiastic about those things that were important to her. I admired her energy and commitment. She was also an amazing paddle ball player in gym class! May she rest in peace and may her family find peace in knowing that her spirit is with God.

Dear Camilla and Steph,
Never having the honor to meet Jenny, I am still very saddened by your loss. Jenny must have been a terrific person having you, Camilla as a
Mom and you, Steph as a special sister.
We all ask "why?" but only God has the answer. I am sure that Jenny is watching over both of you.
May God hear my prayers and grant you comfort and strength.
Shalom,
