Jennifer was born a fiery redhead on December 06, 1974. It seems around the same time she discovered Bon Jovi which ended up being a lifelong love affair. The eldest of her siblings she was stubborn and bossy. But in true redhead fashion she was protective and cherished by them.

As the first grandchild in the Murphy family, her smile and sweet personality won hearts in an instant. Her aunts and uncles doted on and spoiled her. Jennifer has a plethora of cousins fortunate to share in many great adventures with her.

Jerry and Jennifer blended families forging a love that lasted beyond a lifetime. She supervised Jerry designing their farmhouse after they purchased their dream home. Their favorite times together were cheering on the Kentucky Wildcats, discovering the glories of Alexa, and catching up over a cup of coffee. She will forever be Jerry's baby.

She was known as "Mimi" to Kaizley, Jaxson, Colton, and Cyanne. They could not wait to get to Mimi's house to play and eat her special treats. Mimi was tickled when the grandkids came to visit and it was the highlight of her day.

Baking was her love language. She loved experimenting in the kitchen and sharing with her family and friends. Our Pinterest Queen she strived to make holidays special. She loved all things 80s, Sixteen Candles, and Hallmark movies.

She lived for her kids, her greatest achievements. She loved celebrating her kids' accomplishments, encouraged their dreams, and loved them with all her heart.

While her time on earth has ended her legacy continues through her beautiful children. She has left a massive void that can never be filled.

Jennifer this is not a final goodbye.

We love you to the moon and back.

Until we meet again.

Love you the mostest,

Bye.
