Jennie, thank you for sharing your joy, your smiles, and your laughter. You were a bright, shining light. The dance floor will be a much dimmer place without you.

Murdock,

I am sorry. I know your mother loved you to the moon and back. I have not seen your mom in years but we were once very close.

She was so dear to me and I am sad to hear of her passing. My beautiful friend who is peacefully resting in the arms of her father now.

I am so grateful for the many wonderful memories of her. She was a sister to me and I loved her so much.

She will be deeply missed by all who she so generously, genuinely and graciously touched.

To my dear friend of many years, thank you for being there for me so often and the many times we shared together. Just the other day about our sons being engaged. You have been a light in so many lives. May God Bless You and Keep You in His Loving Arms Forever.

Jennie:
You were my friend, sponsor, adviser, sister, and biggest fan: you are my hero. You taught me, often by example, the most important lessons of my life. Save me a seat next to you up there, ok? I love you. Julie

Jennie was one of the most beautiful women I have ever known. Beauty from within that shone brightly on the outside. She was so helpful to me when I really needed a sponsor. " We will just let it unfold, God is in charge", she would say with that sweet smile, and then tell me she loved me. She will be missed by all who knew her. God Bless you Jennie, Sarah

Dearest sweet Jennie, thank you for all the many kind things you did for me and others. I will miss you every day. My little dog Sophie will miss her aunt Jen Jen, and her Wednesday night sleepovers (girls night out) at your place.

I am grateful you considered me your friend and I shall never forget all the good times together. You are forever in my heart.

Your candle burned out long before your memory ever will.

Rest in Peace dearest Jennie

Very saddened at this news. Prayers go out to to all of Jennie's extended family and to son Murdock, whom I remember as the sweetest five-year-old boy many, many years ago. Jennie left an indelible mark. I am forever grateful to have known her.

I am so saddened to hear the news. My thoughts and prayers go out to all her friends and family. Jennie was a great source of strength for me as I walked my path in life in my 20's and 30's. She used to say "this one is walking my path" when we would see one another at various functions. I will never forget all the life and love lessons she shared with me and many others. I haven't seen Jennie in many years, but I always thought of her as the big sister I never had. She will surely be missed!

A lovely love story by Edward Monkton
"The fierce Dinosaur was trapped inside his cage of ice. Although it was cold he was happy in there. It was, after all, his cage. Then along came the Lovely Other Dinosaur-beautiful Jennie. The lovely other Dinosaur melted the Dinosaur's cage with KIND WORDS AND LOVELY THOUGHTS-Jennie. I like this Dinosaur, thought the lovely other Dinosaur. Although he is fierce he is also tender and he is funny. He is also quite clever though I will not tell him this for now
I like this LOVELY OTHER DINOSAUR, thought the Dinosaur.SHE IS BEAUTIFUL AND SHE IS DIFFERENT AND SHE SMELLS SO NICE. SHE IS ALSO A FREE SPIRIT which is a quality I much admire in a Dinosaur. But her mind skips from here to there so quickly, thought the Dinosaur. She is also uncommonly keen on shopping. I will forgive his peculiarity and his concerns for things, thought the Lovely Other Dinosaur. For they are part of what makes him a richly charactered individual. I will forgive her skipping mind and her fondness for shopping, thought the Dinosaur. For she fills our life with beautiful thoughts and WONDERFUL SURPRISE.Besides, I am not unkeen on shopping either ... Together they stand on the hill telling each other stories and feeling the WARMTH of the sun on their backs." ... This is the beautiful story that Jannie described our lovely relationship.
Jennie you very kindly introduced me the culture of this beautiful State of Arkansas. Muchas gracias my lovely Jennie, I will miss you every day.
Ray

What a joyful creature you were, Jennie! You were full of love, life, excitement, drama, peace, mischief, spirituality and most of all feelings. You were so easy to listen to because your voice was soft and relaxed. Smiles breaking through always, even with tears flowing you were a comforting soul. I am so very glad that we were friends. Our weaknesses and fears turned to strength and laughter when we reached out to each other. As much as I hate thinking that I will never see you again, I know that you are gloriously happy and free now. That is what is important. Be free Jennie - just like God intended you to be.
I will continuely pray for Murdock (the love of your life) as you have my children and I will remember you always.
