She was born in Baltimore, MD on November 29, 1971 and was the daughter of David and Ruth Adamshick Jones of Lehman. Jennifer graduated from Lake-Lehman High School in 1989 and was employed as an auditor for Blue Cross of NE Pennsylvania for 22 years. As a member of the Lehman-Idetown United Methodist Church, she was active with Sunday school and youth. Jen was proud to be called "Aunt Jen" not only by her nieces and nephews, but also by her many friends, young and old alike. She was also well-known as an endless giver - a giver of her love through kind words to anyone she met, a giver of time to the youth in her church family, and a giver of charity and warmth to families in need. In 2018 she received the Outstanding Community Partner Award from Luzerne County Headstart. Jen was an awesome dancer and an enthusiastic cheerleader for anyone who needed inspiration. She and her husband, Jack enjoyed celebrating the holidays together, especially Halloween. Jen will be remembered for her energy, joy and positivity.
