Jennifer “Jenny” St. John
On May 19, 1976, God blessed our family with an incredible gift. Jennifer Ann St. John was born to Homer and Barbara St. John in Ann Arbor, Michigan. We had no idea the amazing journey we would be on for the next 48 years.
Jenny grew up in Chelsea, Michigan. She attended school at Washtenaw Intermediate School District and graduated from their young adult program in 2002. She had several jobs after graduation and worked at Huron River Area Credit Union for many years. In 2013 Jenny and her mom moved to Kalispell, Montana to be close to her Montana family.
Jenny had many challenges as a person with Down Syndrome, but she faced them with a lot of strength, determination and a great sense of humor which she got from her dad. Everyone she knew has a favorite Jenny story to share, and they always make us laugh.
A funeral mass was celebrated July 5th, at Risen Christ Catholic Church in Kalispell, Montana.
Burial of her ashes will occur at St. Joseph Catholic Cemetery, 2028 Baker Road, in Dexter Michigan, on Tuesday August 13th, 1:00PM. There will be visitation and reception after at St. Mary’s Catholic Church Parish Hall, 14200 E Old US 12 in Chelsea.
