Art, I sit here wondering…..well….ALOT! So many questions, that not just I have, but Jenny’s whole family have. I am no longer angry. I just needed time to process all of this. I would absolutely LOVE to speak with you, meet with you or whatever. I NEED to know more! I need closure! If you feel up to speaking with me, please call me (707)322-4109. Not one day goes by that I don’t think of Jenn and wonder how and why! I’m hoping you can help shed some light! Or just talk and share memories!

Jen
I hope you are at peace walking along a creek fishing in a stream or hiking though the woods. You where loved by all and will be missed. We have so many questions but no answers yet. We are heart broken and all we wish we could do is call you and tell you how much we love you!!!! Please look down on your 3 children and help guide them the a very successful life. This sad news has been extremely hard on your children here in Ca because there seems to be a need to hide this from us. Fly high Jen please smile down on us. We will find the answers soon and pay our respect to you!!!!

My Dear Cousin Jennifer, I am so pained to hear of your passing. My thoughts and prayers are with your loving family and friends who cherished you and to your son, who I know you adored.
All this life has brought to you was a beautiful gift from God above such as your son, but the hardships and pain, the sorrow and death was not brought on by you. You see in the book of Ecclesiastes, Solomon wrote: “I returned to see under the sun that the swift do not have the race, nor the mighty ones the battle, nor do the wise also have the food, nor do the understanding ones also have the riches, nor do even those having knowledge have the favor.” Why? He explained: “Because time and unforeseen occurrence befall them all.”—Ecclesiastes 9:11.
Far from speaking about any individual’s fate or describing the eventual outcome of one’s life, the inspired Bible writer was speaking of God’s purpose and how it would affect mankind. After saying, “Everything [God] has made pretty in its time,” he went on to say, “Even time indefinite he has put in their heart, that mankind may never find out the work that the true God has made from the start to the finish.” —Ecclesiastes 3:11.
People have grappled with the concept of life after death. Some conclude that something in us lives on after we die. Others believe that we will be reborn in endless reincarnations. Still others think that everything in life is fixed by fate or providence and that there is nothing we can do about it. Sadly, none of these explanations have been completely satisfactory. This is because by their own efforts, “mankind [will] never find out the work that the true God has made from the start to the finish,” says the Bible.
Those familiar words in the opening pages of the Bible set out one of the grandest things that God “has made pretty in its time”—bringing into existence a perfect human couple, Adam and Eve. (Ecclesiastes 3:11) As their Creator, Jehovah God said to them: “Be fruitful and become many and fill the earth and subdue it, and have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that is moving upon the earth.”—Genesis 1:28.
In that statement to the first human pair, God made known his purpose to them. They were to multiply and to care for the earth, turning it into a global paradise home for themselves and their offspring. There was no predetermined time for them to live and to die. Instead, God placed before them a marvelous prospect. By making the right choice and remaining in harmony with God, they could live in perfect peace and happiness forever.
They chose badly, and as a result, old age and death have been the lot of all humans. In fact, the patriarch Job acknowledged: “Man, born of woman, is short-lived and glutted with agitation.” (Job 14:1) What went wrong? “Through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because they had all sinned,” explains the Bible. (Romans 5:12) That “one man,” of course, was Adam, who deliberately chose to violate God’s simple yet clear command. (Genesis 2:17) By his choice, Adam forfeited his opportunity to live forever on a paradise earth. He also forfeited for his offspring a precious inheritance and passed on to them the curse of sin and death. It appeared that everything was lost—or was it?
A Time for Renewal, Millenniums later, the psalmist was inspired to write: “The righteous themselves will possess the earth, and they will reside forever upon it.” (Psalm 37:29) As assurance that his Edenic promise will be fulfilled, God’s Word beautifully describes what he will soon do: “He will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” Then God himself says: “Look! I am making all things new.”—Revelation 21:4, 5.
Since there is an appointed time for everything, the question that logically arises is, When will that time of renewal come, so that the wonderful promises by God will come true? We are living in what the Bible calls “the last days” and that the time for God to take action to ‘make all things new’ is at hand. (2 Timothy 3:1) Yes, soon as Jesus himself promised at Mathew 5:25 - 28 “Most truly I say to you, the hour is coming, and it is now, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who have paid attention will live. For just as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted also to the Son to have life in himself. And he has given him authority to do judging because he is the Son of man. Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice." There is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous. Acts 24:15 “I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and scrolls were opened. But another scroll was opened; it is the scroll of life. … And the sea gave up the dead in it, and death and the Grave gave up the dead in them...” Revelation 20:12, 13
Soon God will wipe out every tear from our eyes, from your son's eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. Revelation 21 3-5, All the reasons we cry, will be wiped away. Until we see you again sweet cousin Jennifer, may God hold your in his memory (Luke 20:38 He is a God, not of the dead, but of the living, for they are all living to him.”) while you rest in peace. See you soon cousin!

My heart is broken today as I learned of Jen’s passing. She had three beautiful children that she cared deeply for. I’ve know Jen for 20 years, I loved the laughs we shared together. She was a brides maid in my wedding and such a caring soul. I’m heart broken it took so long for her friends and family in CA to find out about her passing. I pray that all three of her children know what a bright light they were in her life. Until we meet again my friend.

Jennifer is my best friend! I'm in awe just for the fact that her family here in California just found out about her passing! Then to read this obituary which does not include her children here in California! You get one, just one obituary! Get it right! I'm angry and sad! I can only imagine what her kids are feeling! ALL SHE EVER WANTED WAS ALL OF HERE KIDS TOGETHER WITH HER! THATS IT! SO.....this is not too surprising......I love you Jenn! ♥️♥️♥️♥️

I wonder why her family in California was never told of her death and what’s been happening to the checks she receives every month there will be a police investigation
