Our family is forever changed with the loss of Jenny and Bill. Both taken much too early and reminding us that our time on this earth is brief and to be cherished. They will both be missed tremendously.
I am thankful for so many wonderful memories with my sister. She was a beautiful soul. Her caring and selfless nature and her big heart were part of what made her so special. She was a devoted mother and grandmother. And together with her husband Bill, raised a wonderful family throughout the life they shared.
And our deepest sympathies are with their children and grandchildren. We share in your sadness and extend our heartfelt condolences. Please remember how much they truly loved each of you and know that they will always be with you. Remember the joyful times, the laughter, and cherish your favorite memories of them as you find your way through the pain and toward a more lasting peace and comfort. Our love to you all.

I knew Bill and his family back in Cortland in the late 60’s. He and Chris Fortin and I were the best of friends, bowling, golfing, playing softball and basically just hanging out together. I wish we had kept in touch after my family moved away. We settled in Florida as well. God rest you my old friend.
