Thank you so very much. Your sister's courage and ferocity will not be forgotten and I'm honored to wear something in her honor.

WOW! Thank you so much for posting. I have a mixture of goosebumps and tears right now. Tears for what has happened to Jenny, And please accept my sincere condolences to you and your family. Please pass on my well wishes. Even though your sister was a total stranger to me, I felt like I knew her for some reason. I certainly identified with her.
The goosebumps are that from what you posted it sounds like I had a hand guiding me in my idea of a shirt with purple writing. Perhaps she is up there looking down on us.
And again, I'm very glad that you posted because I was very concerned about overstepping my bounds and offending the family. The last thing I would want to do - or anyone here- is do something that the family- or Jenny would not support. But we all want to honor her.

That being said, I am going to email you so that I can get a better idea of what the family and Jenny would truely want us to do in her honor.

Welcome to the forum, and though I don't know if you cycle or not, we are a very tight knit group of ladies here, who support one another. Cyclist or not we welcome you with open arms, and at this time- heavy hearts as we are also mourning your sister.
Take care, and please pass our love on to your family.

I hope Jenny's sister doesn't mind, but here is a part of an email that she sent me. I wanted to share it with all of you so that you had a bit more insight about Jenny and her family. Boy I sure wish I had met her. She sounds like someone I would have made fast friends with!!
Sad, and SO senseless it makes me shake!

"Thanks so much. I have a large family and we are all determined that this tragedy will result in some very positive outcomes. Jenny and I have four brothers. We are all trying to deal with this, and I think having any kind of memorial would be great. My mother is also fired up about the idea. I talked to Jimmy tonight (my brother in law). He said that a memorial ride and/or T shirt would be fine. They would like any proceeds to go to the Sandy Springs Mission. They have a website if you are interested in finding out about that charity. Anything that brings awareness to safety for women is great. Just for the record she had pepper spray and her phone on whenever she rode. I have talked to her numerous times when she was on the trail. Somethings just happen. In the future, we are also hoping some serious law changes are seen. Hopefully even a Jenny's Law or some such. I have 14 nieces and nephews as well as 3 sisters in law and Jimmy. We are all each other's best friends. God is seeing us through this. Also, she was one of the funniest people ever. She would be right in there with y'all making a difference. She is 15 years older than me with all of our brothers in between. We are tight. My family really appreciates everyone's concern. Sorry this was a little rambling. I am pretty worn out obviously."
