Jennifer “Jenny” Jensen passed away on April 30, 2025, surrounded by loved ones, following a cardiac arrest a few days earlier. She was born on July 26, 1993, in Salt Lake City, Utah, to Brad and Teri Jensen. Jenny was the youngest of seven children—and has always been her dad’s “best buddy.”

Jenny excelled most at being a devoted and loving mom to her three young children: William, Morris, and Lucy. They were the lights of her life and brought deep joy and purpose to everything she did.

Full of life, energy, and opinions, Jenny was quick-witted, funny, and strong-willed. She loved time spent “on the mountain” at the family cabin. She loved games, shopping, puzzles, Utah football, and a cold Diet Coke.

Jenny chose kindness, even when it was hard. She took the high road, despite it being expensive real estate (one of Jenny’s favorite lines).

As one of five daughters, Jenny was part of an extraordinary sisterhood that has loved, rallied, laughed, and cried together throughout life.

She was a deeply loved daughter, sister, friend, and — above all — mom.

She is survived by her three children, William, Morris and Lucy; her parents Bradley T. and Teri Lynn Jensen; her two brothers, Trent (Amy) Jensen, Jacob (Candice) Jensen; and her four sisters Heidi (Brad) Bentley, Jamie (Michael) Neider, Jill (Cameron) Clark, and Brooke (Benjamin) Lee.

Funeral services will be held on Wednesday, May 7, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 9855 S. 2300 E., Sandy, Utah. A viewing will be held on Tuesday, May 6, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at Larkin Sunset Gardens, 1950 E. 10600 S., Sandy, Utah, and again on Wednesday from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. at the church prior to the funeral services. Interment will follow at Larkin Sunset Gardens, Sandy, Utah.

So sad Brad & Teri to hear about Jenny. It has been so long since we’ve been together as an extended family; clear back I think to when Grandpa was still with us. Carrie (my wife) and I just wanted you to know that we’re thinking about you and your family.

I am so sorry to learn of this. If I remember correctly - Jennifer played tennis with 3 of my daughters. I remember her being everything this picture of her depicts: Kind and beautiful. You are in our prayers.

I am so sorry for the loss of Jenny. I know how much she was loved and adored by all who knew her, especially her family who she often expressed the sincerest gratitude for.
I loved her beautiful way with words, especially when speaking about how much she loved her children and how much she loved being their mom. I will miss her sweet words and the positive perspective she shared.

Dear Brad and Teri, I saw this sad notice of your daughter’s passing the other day, and I had to take a moment to tell you how sorry I am for your loss. Just reading about her I could tell what a light she was to your family and her children. I am so sorry. Paula DeSpain
