Jennifer liked camping and gardening. She was witty and had a great sense of humor that was laced with a touch of sarcasm. She enjoyed cooking with Eddie. Jennifer loved children, and they loved her right back, and could often be found trying to find ways to visit her in her office at the day care. Jen’s world revolved around the love of her daughter. They were inseparable, from performing arts, swim meets, to state speech competitions, Jen was always so proud of Imani’s accomplishments.

She is survived by her fiancé, Eddie Shufford and daughter Imani Shufford, both of Eagle Grove, her parents, Marcia Schnell of Ft. Dodge and Bill (JoAnn) Schnell of Webster City, sister Valerie Schnell of Ft. Dodge, as well as aunts, uncles and cousins, other relatives and special friends Kay Collicott, Mook and Christi Bascomb of Ames and Shanae Bolding of Annapolis, Md.

She was preceded in death by her grandparents, Wyman and Mary Marquardt and Merlyn and Delma Schnell.
