In Remembrance



Jennifer was born on this date in 1984. Today she should be celebrating her 25th birthday.

I will not mention the day that she died nor how she died. Unfortunately most of us are already all too familiar with these details.

I never had the good fortune of knowing Jennifer. To the extent that I can say so without sounding too cliche', I wish for those that did know her to remember her not for how she died, but for how she lived.

Despite everything that has transpired since Jennifer's passing, I have never lost sight of what this is really about. My endeavors have been a matter of principles and not for a disregard or lack of respect for the underlying substance.

My brush with a party to this case will come to pass, but until I draw my last breath, I will never forget March 12 and who and what it represents.

For all that loved Jennifer, I wish for your comfort. I also wish that you may forever endeavor to find peace and forgiveness in your hearts.

For Jennifer, I can only wish that you may forever rest in peace...
