Deepest sympathy to the Kipfer and Jolly families in your loss of a dear mother, grandmother and great grandmother. In our family, Jennie was always a favourite. She was such a warm, caring and friendly Christian lady. We will remember her with love. Viewing the posted video of your beautiful family photos was a trip down memory lane for us. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you all in the days ahead.

My deepest sympathies to the Kipfer family. Jenny left a great impression on my life as a young person in our church, and later on in life. It was no secret that she loved the Lord, her family and others. She’s home at last.

Our family will always cherish the special memories over the years that were made when we got together. The enjoyment showed with your kids when visiting our farm & helping with meals & harvesting at times along with Cecil & Jenny getting Mom & Dad out for canoe rides at the pinery were priceless. It truly puts a smile on our faces! Prayers & Hugs, Janet

Dear Jenny’s Family, what a wonderful woman, so much heartache during her life here, she will now be embracing the ones that have gone before her. Our deepest sympathy to all!
Michele Hunt
Very saddened to hear of Your Mom’s passing. Warmest and endearing thoughts when I think of Jenny and Cec when they sheltered Ann and I during that winter storm of 71’ I believe. Made us feel safe and secure. Your Mom crocheted us both slippers which I kept till my feet no longer fit them. She was my favourite Sunday school teacher. She was a prayer warrior like my Mom. She is safe on Jesus arms.

My sincere condolences to Jenny’s family.
Jenny was great to work with on the Board of the Hensall Horticultural Society. I remember one Board Meeting, held on the patio of my home, aka, still decades after we had purchased it, as “the Kipfer Home. Cecil and his siblings grew up in this home.
During the Board meeting Jenny made as all holler with laughter when she looked thoughtfully at me, then said with a serious mien: “I just figured it out, it’s not you who’s got the accent, it’s us.”
Another time she told me that she used to hang out with Cecil’s sisters in this very house. Then asked whether I had ever found any broken crockery while digging in my garden. When I looked puzzled, she added that every so often when she was washing dishes with the girls, something would break. So they’d quickly bury it in the backyard before being found out.
We miss you, Jenny, your humor and good spirits and all. But you are now at a better place. Enjoy your well earned rest.
The Bruce and Susan Cann family
Jenny was an authentic Christian role model to those of us who grew up in the Exeter Pentecostal Tabernacle.
We pray you feel God’s comfort and love.

I always remember coming to Hensall to see Jenny and Cecil when my Uncle Harold and Aunt Ruby came up to their farm from Cailifornia. Always very welcoming and generous, both Jenny and Cecil. She will be greatly missed.

Jane Ostler Groenewegen
Our sincere condolences to the Kipfer family. She was our “Aunt Jenny” the only person we called Aunt besides our actual blood relatives, because she was a cherished friend of our late Mother Pearl Cann Ostler.
So thankful our family had a great visit with her four years ago when we were home for a reunion.
She was an unwavering prayer warrior and woman of God so we will see her again at a glorious reunion in heaven.
Until then Aunt Jenny xox
