Jena Colette Furbee Williams passed away suddenly on November 20, 2018 from bacterial meningitis and strep pneumonia at the very young age of 33. We are heartbroken to have lost her at such a young age. She was born on October 20, 1985 to Robert and Debra Simpson Furbee.
Our Jena was very creative and artistic. Anyone fortunate to have attended one of her parties or celebrations will attest to the gifts that she had. Her ability to conceive an idea or theme and then make it a reality was a joy to behold.
She had an innate ability to attract people and make so many strong friendships. The outpouring from her friends and those she met during her lifetime has been amazing and humbling. We are so grateful that she touched so many during her short time here with us.
Jena was first and foremost a loving and caring mother to her three wonderful children. Braeslee 8, Ryker 7, and Emery 3. She treasured every minute of the time they shared together. We know that she will forever be in their hearts and will continue to watch over them. Our family has set up an educational \"529\" account for each of Jena\s children. As a family, we know it would be Jena\s wish that, in lieu of flowers or gifts, any donations be made on behalf of her children.
Making a contribution is made possible via the links below. Jena\s legacy lives on through her three beautiful children.
