Jennifer Lynn Richter

December 29, 1982 ~ February 17, 2019
Born in: Meadville, Pennsylvania
We lost our sweet, beautiful Jen on, February 17, 2019 at Meadville Medical Center. She was born on December 29, 1982, to Jolynn Taylor Lyons and the late James G. Lyons. She was a kind and caring woman who spent much of her life taking care of other people. She had much compassion for our men and women in uniform and a much deeper compassion for animals of all kinds. Her biggest dream in life was to meet her handsome prince, have a house in the country with her pets, and her happily ever after. This dream came true when she met her husband Chris on March 5th, 2016. She was his beautiful princess from the day they met and they were married on June 23rd, 2018. She moved to his farm in the country, got two kitties and her beloved pup Remi Rain and was living her happily ever after. These were the happiest three years of her short life and it would show when she went to bed every night and said in a sweet innocent voice, "I love you Remi, good night" which melted Chris's heart. She touched so many peoples hearts with her sweetness and big heart and will be missed so much. She loved her friends, she loved her family, she loved her prince and most of all she loved her God. She left this world too soon but the continuing health issues and worries that plagued her here are now gone. She is in a new body in paradise with her Lord and will never have to shed another tear or feel anymore pain. She is deeply loved and will be sorely missed.
Jennifer was an active member of the American Legion Post 111, Auxiliary, she was also a member of the North Meadville church of Christ. Jen's life was truly centered around her family. She worked at Med Express in Meadville, Supports and Vantage Health Care.

Your beautiful smile , sweetness , love for life , your friends, animals , and every baby that crossed your path was simply addicting and infectious ! I will forever remember you, the Beautiful sweet sweet girl that I was blessed to have grace my presence and be a part of my life. My daughters sister, my second daughter, our friend !! love and light Beautiful , until I see you again, and I will. I love you !
My beautiful sweet best friend!! What a legend, your the only one i know that could leave this earth without ever having said a cross word or caused anyone an ill feeling, people could take lessons from you!! You were truly the most kindest caring and compassionate person I know. You set the bar on how to be a loving, god fearing, truly spiritually beautiful person. You made an impact just through your smile to so many people. I’m flattered you chose me to be your maid of honor, your best friend, you could have chosen anybody…your friends list was a mile long…everybody loved you!! Although we weren’t blood, you were the sister I never had. We chose each other…and through all my quirky little habits you still stood beside me and took it with stride, that shows what a saint you are. You were the calm to my storm, the love in my life. You and I had plans to do things, and we will, this isn’t goodbye, it’s a see you later!! In my heart you will always stay, loved and remembered every day!!
Such a great and caring person. You will be missed by all.
Keep watch over all.
