She would have been a senior this year at North Cedar High School. Jennifer attended many school activities and played on the volleyball team. She worked as a dietary aide for the Mechanicsville Care and Rehabilitation Center. Jennifer was most happy being with her friends and family, and loved anything "pink". She was always ready with a hug and a smile. Her last measure of caring was as a tissue donor. She was our "princess," and will be deeply missed. A memorial fund in her honor is established.

I wish there was something I could say that would make the pain go away. I am so very sorry for your loss.
This is two years late. I grew up with Mike, I remember Keith’s whistling throughout the neighborhood. My family moved away in 1970. I haven’t had any contact with the family since. I just heard about the accident. I am now 57 years old and have kids who have cell phones. For some reason I feel connected. Old friends suffering such a great loss hurts me deeply also….all these years later. I send my late condolences.
