    There is no joy in the passing of a loved one. But, perhaps the hope that her life still goes on can bring some solace to you.

    The loss of such a lovely lady as Jennifer is a heavy pain to endure. Remember God promised to wipe our every tear and do away with such pain and suffering ~Revelation 21:4. May that hope sustain you until you see her again ~John 5:28, 29. My condolences.

    We were all deeply saddened to hear of Jennifer’s passing. She was such an advocate for the animals, especially all the schnauzers (and some honorary schnauzers) in the rescue. Her spirit will be greatly missed. Our deepest sympathies go out to you and your family.
