Obituary

Jennifer Ruth Cohen, 50, beloved daughter of Paul and Risa Cohen; much loved sister of Rebecca (sister-in-law for Mark) Stephens; cherished aunt of Coleman and Cayenne Stephens. Jennifer is dearly missed by her aunts, uncles, and cousins. She is treasured by many friends and colleagues. Jennifer was brave, courageous, and valiant throughout her 8-year battle against cancer. She gave everything to prioritize family and life, even as she faced the toughest of trials. Jennifer, a zealous enjoyer of life, had many passions including love for family, watching sports, cheering for Northwestern and LSU alongside her family, watching HGTV, Food Network, and The Great British Baking Show, dining with friends, and on-going dedication to the legal community. Please remember her love, her laugh, and her being the silliest Aunt Jen possible. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Greater Chicago Food Depository, www.chicagosfoodbank.org or Ascension Alexian Brothers Hospice Residence, www.ascensionillinoisfoundation.org. Chapel service Friday, June 30, 12:15 PM at Shalom Memorial Funeral Home, 1700 W. Rand Road, Arlington Heights. Interment following at Shalom Memorial Park.
