She worked at Red Lobster for many years and really enjoyed her time there. Jen had a big heart and was always willing to help others, whatever the task. Jennifer enjoyed relaxing with her word search puzzles, coloring in her coloring books and velvet coloring posters, as well as creating gifts and presents for others with her arts and crafts. She could also be found unwinding in front of the tv while watching a movie, playing with her iPad, or simply listening to music.
