She was a former member of the
church she was raised in, Noland Memorial United Methodist. Since moving to
Florida, she was Baptized at Bell Shoals Baptist Church where she was active in
the choir.
Jennifer loved life in both Virginia but found Florida and her family her Heaven on Earth. She became active in the activities of Pod and Sarah and most recently loved being a Band Mom to the Cougar Pride of Dover, Florida. Visitation will be Saturday April 16, 2016 11 a.m. at Peninsula Funeral Home followed by a Celebration of her life at 12 Noon in the Chapel officiated by Rev. Chris Deitsch, with the burial to follow in Greenlawn Cemetery. She is being laid to rest next to her precious Mimi. Published in Daily Press on

My most heartfelt
sympathy for Jen's family and friends. I went to high school with
her in Newport News, Va. In later years we had some good times with
a mutual friend hanging out. She had a great sense of humor and a
wonderful laugh. She had a great time making fun or herself to make
people laugh. She recently, in the last 6 months, reached out to me
and we reconnected. I am so glad that she did, but wish that we had
a chance to visit together. She took such pride in her Husband, Son,
and Daughter, and loved her Mom with all of her heart. I know she
will be missed by many. Please accept our
prayers for you and your family at this difficult time. Til we meet
again...give Mimi a big hug... Marty,
I knew Jennifer from Noland Memorial Methodist Church when we were
still in pigtails. My mom taught her piano. I watched "The Wizard of
Oz" for the first time with her. We lost touch for a while until
High School. We were both in Ferguson High School drama together.
She will be missed.

Please accept my condolences on the loss of your beloved Jennifer. She and I went to Ferguson together and were in Mrs. Gahan's, of blessed memory, French class. I will always remember her smile, laugh and kindness. We reconnected years later, and she mentioned that she was a nurse, had moved to Florida, was married and had a family. It was so wonderful hearing from her again. Let her memory be a blessing to you. She was a truly remarkable and giving woman. ~ Valarie Adelman Blaes, Richmond, Virginia April 13, 2016 
Linda and Jimmy I am so sorry. May God be with you both.~ Donna Jessup, Mathews, Virginia |
Our sincerest condolences are extended to Jennifer's family and friends at this difficult time.
Y'all take good care of each other! TYPHOONS FOREVER! We'll Always Have Buckroe!
Love to all, Carol

Sometime, Somewhere
Words by Ophelia G. Adams
Music by Charles D. Tillman
Unanswered yet? The prayer lips
have pleaded
In agony of heart these many years?
Does faith begin to fail, is hope departing,
And think you all in vain those falling tears?
Say not the Father hath not heard your prayer;
You shall have your desire, sometime, somewhere,
You shall have your desire, sometime, somewhere.
Unanswered yet? Tho' when you first presented
This one petition at the Father's throne,
It seemed you could not wait the time of asking,
So urgent was your heart to make it known.
Tho' years have passed since then, do not despair;
The Lord will answer you, sometime, somewhere,
The Lord will answer you, sometime, somewhere.
Unanswered yet? Nay, do not say ungranted;
Perhaps your part is not yet wholly done,
The work began when first your prayer was uttered,
And God will finish what he has begun
If you will keep the incense burning there;
His glory you shall see, sometime, somewhere,
His glory you shall see, sometime, somewhere.
Unanswered yet? Faith cannot be unanswered;
Her feet were firmly planted on the Rock;
Amid the wildest storm prayer stands undaunted,
Nor quails before the loudest thunder shock;
She knows Omnipotence has heard her prayer,
And cries, "It shall be done, sometime, somewhere,"
And cries, "It shall be done, sometime, somewhere."

Somewhere" midi (sequenced by Brian M. Ames, copyright © 1999) and lyrics
