Alma, Rob, Ken, Jim and families, I’m so sorry to have just learned of Mr. Jennings passing. I have so many wonderful memories of babysitting the boys and spending many weekend evenings in your warm and loving home. I always enjoyed the walks home after a night of babysitting ...walking and talking to Mr. J and us looking up at the stars and contemplating things. He was always kind, warm and had a generous laugh along with that beautiful smile. Please accept my most sincere condolences for your loss. Keep your memories close.
