Aunt Jen, You were always one of my favorite aunts. You were so blunt, you just said it like it was.You cursed more than anyone else I knew and you always had us laughing. One memory that I have with you, that I will never forget, is a time when we went to Meijer together, I was probably around 15 years old, it was you, me, and Grandma. We were getting out of the car and for some reason, as I was getting out of the car I grabbed the inside of the door, the strip of the car between the two doors, to pull myself up. She drove this tiny little Ford Escort or something like that that sat low to the ground.I have long legs and it was hard to get out of the car without having to hold onto something to pull myself up out of the car. Well, as I was pulling myself out of the car, Aunt Jen all of a sudden shut her car door, the driver's door, and it slammed shut on my fingers. Of course, she locked the door right before slamming it shut. lol, I screamed, and Aunt Jen had this horrified look come over her face. Her color just drained. She fumbled to find the key to her car to unlock the door all the while saying over and over" oh my god are you alright? Let me see your fingers!" And then she got mad at me because she was scared that she could have broken all my fingers. lol. I will never forget that day. We had had Chinese before this happened. lol. We always went to Chinese together. Good times. Good Memories. Love you, Aunt Jen. I'll miss you until the day we meet again!
We are going to miss you so much Jenny, You helped me raise my Donny,Katie and Kelly as if they were your own and you were so very special to us. You have left me so many treasured memories when we lived together. You always had us laughing, my favorite one of you and Donny cleaning and the bird cage that got crushed as you and Don organized. I still laugh over that one! Our Halloween we dressed up with the kids my list could go on and on.Thank you for all of our precious memories. Give my Donny a big hug and kiss for me. I'm going to miss that smile of yours for now but I know I will see you again. Love you always.
I will miss you so much Jenny. So many great memories, you and Ron standing up with Pete and i when we got married is my favorite. However I must say the year Judy and I made moonshine and we were having a teaspoon full to taste test and you tried to talk me into a glass is one of the best. Love you forever.
Best time ever , 1966 prom
Jen and her boyfriend, Linda and I
We will miss you Jenny. Your beautiful smile and laugh will be forever engraved in my heart, along with many, many precious memories. Love you forever and through eternity.
