At San Diegito High School she was an honor student. She was especially interested in the Drama Department where she had leading roles, but just as often did stage-hand work. At UCLA she majored in Poetry and English. She was talented at writing and editing. Many of her dorm-mates were helped by her notes on their papers and essays.  In her work life, she was an executive assistant at ABC television in series development. Later, working in private companies, she then changed course and became employed at Captions, Inc. doing closed captioning of movies and televisions shows for the hearing-impaired.

Jen was a serious cook who loved to feed friends and family.  Her interest was multinational, leaving a kitchen supply of exotic condiments and seasonings. Her humor and sense of fun is a joy to remember.  Jen was a kind and loving friend to all who knew her.  She is survived by her mother Laura Douglas Jones, her sister Martha Park (Rick Alles), her step-sisters Laura Jones (Dan Cady), Ferrell Hansen (Greg), and step-brother Edward Jones.

To honor Jennifer, her favorite charities were Amnesty International and Planned Parenthood.
