Jennie was a lifelong resident of Eastover and a member of Salem United Methodist Church, serving as a member of the Juanita Warren Women’s Guild for over 30 years. She worked as an administrative assistant for Cumberland County Department of Social Services and Highsmith Rainey Hospital.
Seeing the importance of after school care in the Eastover community, in the fall of 2000, she solely organized a fundraiser for Salem United Methodist After School program and raised over $6000 in private and public donations.
She loved music and always had a song in her heart. She was a wonderful mother, but her grandchildren were her passion and joy and she was lovingly devoted to all of them.
