It is hard to believe you have gone to be with Jesus. I am so very thankful for the many times we sat together at Bible study while we heard more of God's word. You were a wonderful friend and I will always be grateful that I got to know and love you. You are free now - no more pain. Until we meet again. Pat

Jennifer was the first born grandchild making Hazel and Bob Wallace grandparents. What a special loving girl! Now she is reunited in heaven once again with her dad and the Wallaces' who have gone before her. Once again the first grandchild. Gone too soon but loved on Earth as well as in heaven. My deepest sympathy to Patty, Michelle and Steve. Julina Wallace

I didn't know Jennifer, but very sorry to hear about this. A relative of mine is currently fighting (unfortunately a losing battle) against ALS. What a horrid disease. My thoughts are with all who knew her, cared for her.

Just today I heard of Jennifer's passing. I am so sad. I feel very regretful I lost touch with Jennifer. It seems as we get older it becomes more difficult to stay connected. Jennifer's year-end passing seems to coincide with the conclusion of a very difficult year. I recall fondly spending the night at the Wallace home on High St after becoming acquainted with my "country cousins" from Mazo. Jennifer was always upbeat and positive. She had a very fun personality! My last memory of Jennifer is when she reached out to me and visited my son and I at the little house on South St in Madison we rented back in 2004? I remember her joyful chatter as we baked snickerdoodles! My very sincere sympathies to her Mom, sister and husband...may she know the comfort of life everlasting reunited with her beloved father and grandparents. Debbie (Drake) Pankow
