Jennifer Lee nee Williams Obituary

Jennifer was and will continue to be a bright star in everyone's lives that she touched. I wish for her family and those closest to her to know that the community that included her stretches around the world, and we all send our love.

I met Jenny when I was 8 years old. Her sister, Camille, and I were childhood friends. The Williams family was like a second home to me. I wish I had the courage to reconnect sooner with them. Jenny was instrumental in introducing me to my life-long love of anime. Her wit, talent, creativity, and humor made her one of the coolest people I had ever known. She was a positive influence on this world. We ran into each other once since her diagnosis, and it was evident that her infectious laugh was as warm as ever. She was an inspiration. May she be at peace, and I wish all her family and friends smooth healing and support.

Although our meeting was brief, it was clear what a bright light Jenny shines in this world with a smile and kindness that radiated a resiliant spirit. Sam, on behalf of our whole team, you, your family and friends, are in our prayers and thoughts. Do not weep because she is gone-Jenny will always be in your heart; smile because she was here. May your memories bring you smiles, love, laughter and joy.
With condolences,

Maria Fidanza, Mark Segal, Katherine Paul and Sa'da Chester

Deeply saddened at the loss of such a beautiful person. Her incredible warmth and smile will be forever remembered. I took this as quite a shock when I found out and my heart felt condolences go to her family. God Bless Jenny. RIP friend

Jenny was a wonderful person and a joy to be around. She excelled as a graphic designer and was so great at turning concepts into masterpieces. I really enjoyed talking to her about music, art, photography, film and about our dogs. I will miss her deeply. My heartfelt condolences to Sam and family.

Jenny was a bright and beautiful force of nature. It was always a joy and pleasure to see, and talk with her while walking our dogs. She always smiled, even on days when she wasn't feeling her best. She will always have a special place in our hearts and thoughts.

I had the pleasure and honor to work with Jenny back at our time at Abbott. She was a pure positive force of energy and fun. A friendly, helpful coworker. My heart and thoughts go out to her family and friends.

Pat and I are very distressed to learn of Jenny's death. During her all-too-short lifetime, she positively impacted many. The connection she made between Matt and Erica has a lasting, forever impact on our lives. May the good times shared sustain all of us in this mourning time and beyond.

Jenny was such a shining light in the office. Any time I was in Rosemont, I would sit by her desk and we'd end up talking much more than working. She loved talking about her family, Sam's art, and her favorite restaurants and cities. She was always so happy with a wicked sense of humor. The last time we talked, she was so excited to be marrying the love of her life and making the most of the time she had left. She may have only had a short time here, but she packed so much life into those years. I'll smile whenever I look at her adorably designed cell stickers on my laptop. Rest well Jenny - you earned it.

Jenny was a super nice young lady to work with. She was and still is a joy.

I really enjoyed stopping by your house in Deerfield and chit chatting randomly, helping you move, and going to potbelly and just enjoying hanging out with you. You were a great friend and you will be missed. I'm devastated.

I'm going to miss working with Jenny at Proteintech. She was a wonderful graphic designer, always so patient when projects took longer than expected or required many back and forths. In the time that I knew her, she was always so optimistic and cheerful, and you could tell she really enjoyed what she did. We created some beautiful pieces together!
