Mrs.Neal… I was trying to make it. I couldn’t due me having to work. Beating myself up hoping that you know if I could be there, I WOULD! As long as YOU know I love you as MY FAVORITE teacher. I’m hurt to hear such news, and I’m wishing your family well. See you when I get there one day. I’m sad, so sad. We were just speaking about so much, and now you’re gone. I have so many questions that you can’t answer . love always and may you rest in peace. Your favorite student. ~Asante

Jen,this is hard. We met when I was a middle school math teacher and then you became my coach as I moved into my ATL role. I had so many reservations about that position, but you believed in me and saw my potential. You will be missed, as will your laugh, your keep it real personality, your threats to call on people if we didn't volunteer, but most of all, your friendship. Rest well, Jen.

I was Jennifer's babysitter when she was a just a baby (for weekends and nights). I was Denise Hennessey back then. I still remember her little bear named Tia that barely had any hair left on it, but she loved Tia! I am so sorry for all of your losses. Please accept my sincere sympathy.

Jen, I always thought we’d reconnect. And what a lesson, I’ve waited too long to reach out to a dear friend. She was willing to push and speak the truth all while drawing you in with her loving humor. I’m so deeply sorry for her family.
Gwen. Fleming left a message on March 26, 2025:
Jerome and Dylan, I'm so very sorry for your loss. Jen was a kind friend who was loved by everyone who was fortunate enough to know her. We often ask why, but God needed another angel and He chose Jen. I'm praying for courage and strength for you, the Neal family, and the Yost family. God bless all of you.

Jamie Goldberg left a message on March 25, 2025:
Jenn had a tremendous spirit and larger than life personality. Jenn was not only our math coach but was always somebody myself and many others looked up to. This is a tremendous loss for all who love her but it is clear she left an enourmous impact on those who knew her. Sending so much love and praying for Jenn’s husband, son, and loved ones.
Ms. Closson left a message on March 25, 2025:
Sending strength and peace during this challenging time. Jenn was an amazing individual and I am so thankful to be able to learn from her during my time in the district. Her memory will forever be remembered.
Anthony Newton left a message on March 25, 2025:
To the Yost family. First I want to say I Pray God's Blessing and His Peace that surpasses understanding encompasses you during this time. My heart is soo heavy in hearing of Jenn passing. I know the Almighty doesn't make any mistakes, so this just tells me that the Almighty needed her for a special purpose in Heaven... I know she will be missed tremendously and that the days to come will not be easy, but you have the family structure to support one another with love and strength, but when you feel weakened remember to rely on His Strength that will get you through. My sincerest Condolences I Love and Miss you all. Peace and Blessing
Stephanie Mikalauskas left a message on March 24, 2025:
To Jenn’s Family, I am so sorry for your loss. I met Jenn 4 years ago when I joined the Jay Cooke School community. She was my region’s math lead and knew how to inspire others to love teaching math. Her monthly virtual PD’s were always spot on and a place where I could be vulnerable. I will miss your smile, laughter, hugs, and yelling on zoom- “YO M.”

Jerome, I am so sorry to learn of your loss. I know you know the Lord and we don’t always know his ways or his will. But God himself will give you comfort, strength, courage in these days. John15/26 he tells us he will send another comforter to us. I pray for your strength and wisdom as you raise your son. Lean on the Lord, he can handle all your hurt and anger and questions. You are your son are in my prayers.

To my Sister-in-Law, The greatest gift you have given to my family besides Dylan, was a star. That star means the world to us. I read something today Jenn that I want share with all who love you and is dealing with this enormous loss. "Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in Heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy." I will forever look to the stars Jenn to see you. Feel you. Thank you for loving us and you will forever be one of us.

When we would meet in person or via zoom, we connected as friends. We really understood one another. I knew that she was in my corner 100 percent. She had a warm and loving down to earth spirit. She enjoyed what she did for this community. Rest well my friend and coach. My prayers go out to all who were connected to this lady. When I looked at her birthday it made me cry..... we shared the same sign as well. Love you all.

Jen Where do I even begin? There are NO words to describe how I feel. Many years of being colleagues and “ true friends”. Thank you for all of the talks, the laughs, the fun and inspiration . From our Kenderton days to our meet ups at Strawberry mansion, I will miss you yelling down the hall …calling me T Thomas! You were an amazing mom, daughter, sister, wife, colleague and friend! Rest in peace until we meet again. Love you Yostie!
