Jennifer Lynn Patterson (44), daughter of Billy and Becky Olson, wife of Derek Patterson, mother of Ezra (3) and Zoé (1) lost a hard fought battle with cancer. She was the most diligent worker, and committed all of her energy into raising her children to the best of her ability. She will be remembered for her unwavering devotion to her faith, and her family. She loved spending time in nature connecting with God, learning every possible natural healing remedy, and discovering new healthy recipes. She had a huge heart, and was very quick to forgive. She believed Jesus' return was very near and even if she went to sleep, she would not miss much of her children's growth. She will be missed until the resurrection.
