Jennifer Ellen (Sullivan) St Jean, 47, of Newtown, died suddenly November 25.

A loving mother, wife, and nurse, she cared for everyone around her. There was nothing more she loved than to help the ones around her, and she made everyone she touched the best version of themselves.

Her loving husband, Chris; her only son, Matt; her parents, Judy and Frank; her in-laws, Dennis and Bernice; her brothers and their wives, Frank and Brenda and Matt and Teresa; her brother-in-law, Dave and his wife, Eileen; and five nieces and nephews survive Ms St Jean.

She will forever be in the prayers of family and friends.

Friends may call Thursday, November 29, from 4 to 8 pm, at Honan Funeral Home, 58 Main Street, Newtown. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated Friday, November 30, at 10:30 am, in St Rose of Lima Church. Interment will follow in Newtown Village Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate donations to ROAR (Ridgefield Operation for Animal Rescue) at 45 South Street, Ridgefield CT 06877 or at roar-ridgefield.org/donate/, the shelter from which Ms St Jean received her beloved dog.
