IN CELEBRATION OF
JENNI'S 38th BIRTHDAY
May 29, 2011
Jen, Thirty-eight is not real old,
Eighteen you’ll always be.
Its taken quite a while, it true,
For me to finally see.
Though at eighteen your life was through,
Your life, it was complete.
You had lived each and every day,
No more…no less…complete.
Our days are set before we’re born,
God knows how long we’re here.
He knows the days, even the hours…
The set number of years.
And when those years have come, and gone,
Its then our lives are through.
Though seemingly to us, too short…
God’s sovereignty is true.
Your life was not cut short that day,
You’d lived all He had planned.
You’d done the things you were to do…
And now with Him you stand.
Though you now celebrate with Him,
We celebrate here too.
Remembering your birthday, Jen…
Forever missing you!

Last year (May 29, 2010) Jenni would have been 37 years olds. That is almost impossible to believe. I find myself always thinking of her as being 18 years old...but, do the math...( -:

Hard to believe that you were born
So many years ago.
Sometimes it seems like yesterday…
Sometimes, I just don’t know.
Sometimes it seems you never were,
But, I know that’s not true.
I’ve memories of days gone by…
And I’m still missing you!
CELEBRATING YOUR
37th BIRTHDAY

I wonder what you’re doing now,
Now that there are no days.
I know there are no nights in Heav’n…
I’m sure you sing His praise.
You use to ask me what you’d do,
When you went up to Heanv’n.
I did not have an answer then…
So none to you was giv’n.
You said if all you did was sit
Around and sing all day,
That it might get quite boring…
If life went on that way.
I told you I was sure that God
Would keep you occupied.
You’d never want for anything…
Your needs He would supply.
I wonder if you can see me,
Though I cannot see you.
But seeing me might make you sad…
No sadness there, that’s true.
I guess I can’t know what you do,
Until I’m there with you.
And once I’ve, too, gone Heavenward….
I’ll no longer feel blue.
I know not what you are doing now,
But of this I am sure,
I’ll love you ‘til the end of time…
My love, it will endure.

36th Birthday
05-29-1973 – 10-06-1991
Hard to believe it is that time,
Another year is through.
And here we are again wishing,
Happy Birthday to you.
Hard to believe that you’ve been gone,
This year its eighteen years.
Sometimes it seems such a short time...
Sometimes a million years.
We have to tell you, we feel blessed
For years that God gave us.
Those eighteen years were Heaven sent...
We really shouldn’t fuss.
You are a bright spot in our life,
In mem’ries that we share.
And in each of those memories…
You will always be there.
So, as we celebrate this year,
Please know that this is true,
We have lots of fond memories...
But, we’ll always miss you.
Happy 36th Birthday, Jenni

Jenni had her graduation photos taken by Jim Nelson of Nelson Photography in Richland Center, WI. This was her favorite pose. She affectionately referred to it as her spoiled brat shot.
This was her dad's favorite pose from her graduation photos.
This family photo was taken of the Chapman family as long as everyone was down in Richland Center for Jenni's graduation party. Little did we know that 4 months later Jenni would be in the auto accident that ended her life here on earth.
