Team Jen

Team Jen In Memory of Jennifer Yatuoma Yousif
03/02/84 - 01/16/18
Deeply missed never forgotten She is determined to help others in her shoes.

TEAM JEN was founded in July 2011 by a group of young women who centered their sisterhood and friendship through the amazing bond of Christ to support their dear friend and sister, Jennifer Yatuoma, who was diagnosed with cancer in 2008. Since Jennifer’s diagnosis, she has used the disease as her teacher, rather than her crutch. She has remained positive, become an amazing role model, and continue

s to be generous and compassionate to those in need throughout the community. This foundation is a way to reach out to friends and families who have been affected by such a terrible disease. The word CANCER should never scare anyone; it should ONLY make them stronger. Team Jen hopes to be the army of support for others. Just as soldiers go in to face their battle and put their lives out on the line for others, so too, will we go in and help others face and take on their battle with cancer. No war has been victorious through one person alone. It takes an army to overcome your opponent. And that’s what we’re determined to do.

Eight years since we lost you, yet your love still surrounds us every day. Not a day goes by that we don’t think about you. Always remembered, always loved. Miss you so much Jen. 💔

Taking notes and crying….

January can feel heavy.

The holidays end, the noise fades, and the world expects us to move on but grief doesn’t follow a calendar. For many, January is when the loss feels louder, when the quiet settles in and the ache shows up in new ways.

If you’re grieving this month, know this. You are not behind. You are not weak. You are not doing it wrong. Grief has no timeline and healing is not linear.

Be gentle with yourself. Rest when you need to. Cry if it comes. Smile when it surprises you. Honor your loss in whatever way feels right for you.

And if January feels especially hard, you are not alone 🤍

Happy 41st Birthday, my beautiful sister, in heaven. Not a day goes by that I don’t think of you. I miss your laughter, your kindness, and the way you made everything brighter. I carry you in my heart always, and I know you’re watching over me. I hope you feel all the love I’m sending to you today and every day. Until we meet again, happy birthday, angel.

Missing our loved ones even more so during the holidays. 🥹
I miss you more than words can express. Every day without you feels incomplete, like a piece of my heart is missing. The moments we shared, the laughter, the comfort, and the love are memories I hold onto tightly, but they don’t fill the space you’ve left behind. Life goes on, but it’s not the same without you. I wish you were here, to share more of the simple joys and to offer your presence, which I miss more than anything.

Happy bday to our Queen! 😍🥰🎉

Happy bday Janie! 🎊Having a sister is like having a best friend you can’t get rid of. You know what we you do, they’ll still be there. Not matter what…… Jen will always be there. Love you lots and can’t wait to continue celebrating you this week. 💃🏻

Happy 40th bday to the one and only JenBunny! 🎊Can’t believe how time is flying and as we hit all these milestones without you, we know you’re still right there beside us. Your presence is so strong it’s undeniable. This bday would have been epic! You would have either thrown the biggest 40th anyone has ever seen or we would have been on a plane somewhere unforgettable. Actually knowing you, we would have probably done both bc you wouldn’t want to exclude anyone. We know your partying it up in heaven and please continue to send us signs. Life will never be the same without you. Love and miss you dearly. Happy heavenly bday my beautiful angel. 😇
