She was born in Mecklenburg County to Kathy Helton Hefner and Chessie Lee Freeman. Jennifer taught Pre-K for Gaston County Schools for 16 years.

The family will greet guests from 6:00 until 9:00 p.m. Monday, August 23, 2021 at Woodlawn Funeral Home in Mount Holly. A service to celebrate her life will be held at 2:00 p.m. Tuesday, also at the funeral home. Interment will conclude at Hillcrest Gardens Cemetery in Mount Holly.
