I didn't meet Jenn but was so touched by her story when Carolyn Newman introduced her to the Pink Angels. We all fell in love with her. I was hoping to meet Jenn one day. We are heartbroken for her family but we know she will forever be an angel smiling down on those she loved. Wishing you strength and love as you mourn the loss of your precious Jenn.
