Obituary for Jennifer Unruh Walls
Her song has ended but her melody lingers on…

Words cannot suffice to tell the reverence with which we cherish the memories of our beloved Jennifer. To her family and friends, she was the light in the darkness, the source of strength, comfort and caring in difficult times. Whether she was offering encouragement or giving away her last dollar, her generosity of heart knew no bounds. She inspired us all with the incredible joy she felt for life.

After being diagnosed with colorectal cancer in 2008, Jennifer became a Greeter for Colontown, a global and local support community for those affected by CRC. She supported their mission to knock colon cancer out of the top three cancer killers through championing prevention, research and patient support services. Her tireless efforts to help increase awareness of CRC continued throughout her heroic battle with the disease.

In the end, accepting that her work here was done, she passed on with a grace and dignity befitting her beautiful spirit, called away to a reunion with loved ones who welcomed her with open arms. She leaves behind her daughter Genevieve Rae Leiper, her son Geoffrey Ryan Walls, her granddaughter Sarah Rae Karrick, her brothers Tim Unruh and Mark Unruh, her sisters Sharon Haney, Gwynne Unruh, Gretchen Jeannette and Lorna Allen. The names of her extended family and dear friends, old and new, whose lives she so deeply touched, would fill volumes.

Jennifer may be gone from our sight, but she waits for us just over the next hill. Those who knew and loved her will always remember the mother, sister, aunt, grandmother and friend who gave us every example of bravery and kindness.

Do not stand at my grave and cry
I am not there.
I did not die.
