Memories

Many years

Leora Foster Oct 06, 2009

So many years ago, Jennifer, her parents and us would get together to eat, play Tripoly, go fishing or just visit. Our son, Gary was almost the same age and they played together endlessly. We have known Jennifer since the time she was born as Sue and I have been friends since High School. Her untimely passing has left a big whole in many hearts. May God bless her and her family.

My daughter cherished your friendship,she called you her other mother.I'm so proud to be your sister,Your Love,Your Care.Your Kindness,and Your COOKIES will never be forgotton.I guess you knew Dad would need a special place in heaven so went to prepare that place for him because he left just 75 days later.

Jennifer was a classmate of my daughter, Mari Anne and graduated with her from Oswego High School in 1974. Jenny went away to college & pursued a nursing career. She retired in 2000 and moved back to Oswego to be closer to family. We became friends through church and the church choir. Jenny enjoyed singing and shared her talents with the choir. By the way, Jennifer, since Sacred Heart Church has been closed, the choir is singing every Sunday morning at Mother of God. The music is wonderful, but your beautiful voice is missed. Fr. Larry says he thinks of Jennifer every time he walks into the church and sees the sparkling tabernacle. He remembers all the hours she spent cleaning, polishing & buffing to get that "shine." You did good, girl.
You were fun to be around, Jenny, and I miss the good times we shared.
