Jennie M. Shafer Obituary (1935 - 2015)

Our beloved mother, grandmother, sister and aunt finally conquered the cruel Alzheimer's that consumed her for her last years. She was a beautiful example to us all of love, loyalty and comfort combined with an ethic of hard work all her life. Jennie was born in Salt Lake City to Albert & Jennie Ploeger. Her husband, Alvin, of 60 years passed away in 2010. She is survived by her 3 children: Jeanne (Lynn), Greg (Terri) and Jeff; grandsons, Christopher, Nick and Derek; 4 great-grandchildren; 2 sisters, Margaret Erickson and Annie Bird (Keith). We would like to thank Carrington Court and staff for their loving care. Also, thanks to Rick Donohue, a nephew, for his help in her care.
