To the Tokar family. I am so sorry for your loss. It's hard to believe, she was so young. I have fond memories of Jenny growing up in Sagamore Hills. I will not forget her kindness. I wish you peace during this very difficult time.

My sympathies to the family of Jeniffer.
I am a retired court reporter from Common Pleas Court. I had worked with Jeniffer for many years. She was always cheerful, someone to count on, and be willing to help others. I will always remember her kindness.

To Jeniffer's family, our sincere condolences. This is a great loss to so many, because Jeniffer was truly a light in our lives. She was a part of our Court, as a colleague, but more importantly, as a friend. Jeniffer was the consummate professional, and at the same time, a bright shining soul who always had a small, an amazing sense of humor and a kindness that cannot be described. We both worked with her for many years, and we are better people having known your beloved Jeniffer. Our prayers are with her family and all those who mourn her loss.
I have no doubt she rests today in God's hands.

I am a lawyer who has been going to the justice center for four decades. Jennifer was without doubt the sweetest, most caring person I met in my time there. She and I had many spiritual talks when I was first in AA and was struggling with the concept of God. I will be forever grateful to her. I am a better person for having known her. My heart goes out to you. She was a friend and a beautiful human being. I miss her and always will.

I wish I could be with everyone today in support of our Jennifer, who I believe was the epitome of what most of us think of as the Justice Center family, and no matter what, and regardless of position or side, we stand by each other through thick or thin.
I actually go back to the early nineties with Jennifer when she assumed the role of bailiff to Judge Pat Kelly, and as a Public Defender, I spent over a month in trial in her room. As everyone else has previously stated, she always had a kind word and a smile or memory to share. She liked to tell me of her casino escapades with her mother and their enjoyment of playing the slots. I will miss her and am shocked and saddened by the conplety unexpected loss. I believe Jennifer lived by and would want us all to follow the sentiment expressed in the song penned by Charlie Chaplin; ....Smile though your heart is aching."

My deepest sympathy to the entire Tokar family. While she was always professional in her position, she was also very personable and caring. I always thought Jennifer was most happy when sharing her fondest memories of her family, her loving brothers and sisters-in-laws and of course, she thrilled with each new accomplishment and achievement of their children no matter how expected or even mundane! Her eyes sparkled with love for all of you and I am certain that is never-ending. May you continue to feel her love all the days of your lives.

My deepest sympathies to all of you for your loss. Jen and I went to court reporting school together and worked together at The Justice Center. She loved all of you very much and her face would light up every time she spoke of you. I will miss hearing her Christmas songs. Jen was a beautiful and caring person and will be missed by all who knew her. May you find peace knowing that there is one more angel in heaven.

Please accept my deepest condolences on the loss of Jennifer. I would see her in various Common Pleas Court courtrooms before a Probation Violation hearing (I'm a Probation Officer ) We would just chat ... I found her to be one of the most joyful souls that I have ever encountered. There just seemed to be "light" around her all the time. Her light drew you in and her smile warmed your soul. I will that light.... So sorry for your loss.

To Jennifer's family, my sincerest condolences. I'm a lawyer and work daily in the Justice Center. I don't want to compare her to anyone but she was one of the kindest, friendliest people I've ever met. I'm personally very saddened to hear of her death and I hope you know that she was liked/loved by all in the JC. She was also an excellent bailiff and court reporter.
