I was saddened to hear of Jennifer's passing. We first met in her days at Tufts when I owned a small Somerville restaurant, Soundbites, in Ball Square. Jennifer was a frequent and favorite customer. We reconnected some years later when time and fate conspired to bring us both to Appleton -- Jennifer for her term as a Lawrence Fellow, and me as Lawrence Director of Catering. Although I didn't see her often, I followed her work at the Conservatory with interest. She was a creative and positive person whose talent was significant. It is a profound sadness that her light has left the world. My deepest condolences. Julia Sati Director of Catering Lawrence University
