I thank God for the grace he gave to Jen. I thank God how he used her to teach us many important spiritual lessons.  I am especially thankful for Jen's grace in her suffering. It was such a wonderful sermon we only wish we could deliver. But her work is done.  Curt, it is now for you and the kids to continue to good work set before. May God give you all the blessings you need to continue to live for him.

So very sorry to hear of the passing of Jennifer.  Dorothy and Will, you did a great job of raising such a wonderful daughter.  Our hearts go out to you and your family and to Curt and their children.
Many great memories of times our children played together years ago at the BRAK farm and your place!
Such comfort knowing that she is in Heaven now.
We pray for you all, going through this difficult time.
Love,
Wendy and Bryan
Damon, Brooke and Chenice

Dear Curt and your precious children; dear Dorothy, William and your wonderful family. There is rejoicing in Heaven as we grieve together here on earth.  May God's love surround each of you during this difficult time, and may you find comfort in His peace and strength.  Jennifer’s beautiful smile, her sunny sweet disposition, her loving spirit, her strong faith and love for Jesus will live on in our memories.  We are so blessed with many photos of her over the years surrounded by her loved ones.  She will be dearly missed.
With love and prayers,
Tante Nanc, Uncle Randy, Barrett, Dan and Brian  ❤️‍🩹🙏

My dear family, 
I am so thankful for the positive influence Jen was for us younger cousins. She was one of the first people who I saw grow up, get married, and have kids, and she did it all so gracefully and with such an evident love for the Lord. I remember admiring Jen so much that I followed around when I was little (maybe 4 or 5?) until my parents told me to "stop hanging off of her" because I was being annoying. Jen never complained, though. I think my mom still has a picture of me sleeping on poor Jen on the beach at the cottage, trapping her in her chair. 
I also remember the constant banter between Jen and my Dad. When they made pancakes next to each other in Moose Lodge, he would always claim that you could shingle a roof with hers. I also distinctly remember him sneaking up to courtin' bench with a full bucket of water and absolutely soaking Curt and Jen as they read poetry to each other when they were dating. He kept laughing at how enamoured they were with each other since they didn't even hear him huffing and puffing up the hill. 
I'll greatly miss Jen's sweet, cheerful forbearance with us all. She has been such a positive role model as she led the way in many important milestones as an older cousin, and she is still an even greater example to us now as she leads the way to the best family reunion. Thomas and I will continue to pray for you all in the coming days.
I wish so much that I could be with you this weekend to show my support and give thanks for Jen's life with you. I wasn't able to get a last minute flight for tomorrow, but my prayers and my heart are with you, and I'll be there with you on the live stream. 
Much love, 
Sharon
