JENNIFER M. SMITH

Though we may not have known the stories you carried, your life mattered, and your presence left an imprint on those who loved you. You were more than a moment, more than a struggle—you were someone’s family, someone’s friend, someone’s heart.

We honor you today and always, not just for who you were, but for who you could have been. Your light, though dimmed, will never be forgotten.

For those you leave behind, may they find peace in their memories of you. For those who never got the chance to know you, may they be inspired to see the person beyond the headlines.

Rest gently, always remembered, always loved.
