The family of Jennifer Luey would like to thank the Valley community for their outpouring of support during her recent fight with cancer and her ultimate passing.

The family of Jennifer Luey would like to thank the Valley community for their outpouring of support during her recent fight with cancer and her ultimate passing.

The emotional and financial support provided by everyone, including complete strangers is overwhelming.  Jen worked at the North Bend Ace Hardware and was a constant source of joy for all. Her customers appreciated her customer focus and her knowing smile. She will be sadly missed by us all, family, friends and strangers alike. We thank you all for your kindness and generosity.

We’d especially like to thank her friends for the fundraisers, and the local community for their encouragement and kind words. We thank her coworkers at Ace Hardware for their continued support. We also want to specifically thank Gordy Gaub for his kindness and unparalleled generosity.  Once again, the community put their arms around a family in need. åwOur community has rallied in the face of adversity and demonstrated through actions what a great place we live. Thank you all for caring and showing Jennifer how much she was loved and how much we will all miss her disarming smile.

A celebration of her life is 1 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 11, at the Cedar River Watershed Education Center. We welcome your participation in remembering her impact on our hearts. In lieu of flowers, donations in her name may be made to the Snoqualmie Valley Relay for Life.

David and Virginia Sharpy, Mark and Michele Percosky, Rick Babcock
