In recent years, Jennifer was her father’s executive assistant. Jennifer had a renowned love for dogs. She considered her dozens of rescues part of her family. Jenn would say they were her children. Jennifer’s kindness, generosity, and compassion extended to her friends and family along with her animals. She will always be remembered for humanity. Jennifer’s challenging diabetic life was extended when her cousin Lynn Bernstein donated an almost perfect match kidney to her in 1993. Lynn was truly Jennifer’s Guardian Angel.
