Words cannot express my deepest sympathy to all who know and loved Jenn.
I "met" Jenn through our friend, singer/songwriter, Jana Stanfield. I was born with Spina Bifida, a birth defect, and could relate to her on that level. I never met Jenn in person, but we communicated here through Myspace on several occasions.
She seemed like such an amazingly inspirational person. My heart goes out to all of Jenn's family and friends in this most difficult time. I am lucky to have crossed paths with such a wonderful person.
I, too, would like to know what happened. I would very much like to pass word along to our friend, Jana, if someone could tell me what happened. I know Jana would want to know this sad news.
As the lyrics of one of Jana's songs goes...
I wish you faith, I wish you peace, I wish you strength.
And another...
Oh, The love I would've shown If I had only known.
I am in shock. I just talked with Jennifer last week. Please, please let me know what happened. I too have JDM and had been talking with her for about 2 years now after I moved to Dallas. We had never met...but would have loved to have met her.
i came to Jenn's page to see how she was doing. i am friend from NY that has JDM as well and Jenn was going to see my doctor at Johns Hopkins this month. i got to know her very well and loved her immediately. i am so devastated to see she is gone, i almost cannot believe it. we just talked not too long ago...for 2 hrs and i knew we would be great friends. can someone please write to me and tell me what happened? i am sending so much love to her, her family, and her wonderful friends. i wish i would've known something was wrong...:(. again, love to Jenn and all that loved her.
Jenn, you will be missed beyond words. As everyone keeps saying, you are an inspiration...and it's so true. You lived life to the fullest and always had a smile on your face. I'm glad I got to know you even better this past year and will miss you.
Jenn, I am having so much trouble finding the words to say what I feel right now. But I know you are with the One that knows what it is in my heart. I Love You Darlin' and I am so glad that I could be a part of the dance. You have left an everlasting impression on my heart and the warmth of your smile will forever warm my soul on the darkest days. If only you knew how many days you carried me through and how many time you lifted me up. I will see you soon.
you are forever... the fiercest fighter, soulful survivor... a desert flower that blooms in the driest sand... forever growing, this beautiful garden in the sky.
This world is definitely a better place having had you in it. I miss very much, and am so looking forward to the next time I see you in heaven and we will both run up to one another with big hugs! I love you!!
Jennifer,
Thanks for always being an inspiration to everyone you every met.
You've always been one of my heroes.
I love you and you will be missed!

Oh how we are going to miss our Jenn- words can't express the loss our entire family feels today and will continue to feel. We are so grateful we got to soend time with you last weekend...... The only positive thing I could feel today is that you were dancing with Joey, Paul and Cody in Heaven. Rest in Peace my friend!
