She loved interacting daily with each of her customers. On August 22, 1981, she married the love of her life, Billy 'B.B.' McPherson. Later in their marriage, they enjoyed traveling to places such as Alaska, Hawaii and New England. Jennifer was a thoughtful and caring soul, yet fiercely loyal. She loved crafting, making trips to Roanoke and dancing to the music when it hit her just right, but nothing compared to spending time with her family and friends. Her immeasurably big heart allowed her to care for her nieces like they were her own children. She provided infinite care and support to her parents and siblings over the years as well. Her grandson was the light of her life. Jennifer was a member of the New Castle United Methodist Church as well as a past member of the United Methodist Women.
