“I am so sorry for your loss. I was very good friends with Jennifer when we attended St Mark’s elementary school in Sault Ste Marie. Very fond memories of Jenny, her parents, brothers and sister. Jenny was an amazing basket ball player and I loved how she taught me how to ice skate much better on the ice rink her dad made in their backyard on Hugill Street . My thoughts and prayers to all family members and friends who knew her. Sincerely Barbara O’Neill Roach”

“To the Schaefer and Melisek Families, I was so very sad to recently learn of Jennifer’s passing. As she was younger, my memories of her are of a cute little person, and what a wonderful woman she became. Hoping that the beautiful memories ( many shared in a recent article by Matthew, and I am sure many other special moments and events of times with Jenny were shared by other family and friends) will remain for your lifetime. I will continue to think of you all, Ginny”
