She adored her son, Luke Motter, and daughter Bobett Martino, as well as her son-in-law, Brian Martino. Jennifer was also blessed with the love and joy of her granddaughters, Aurora and Gianna, and grandsons, Dominic and Angelo. Her niece, Jessie, was her painting buddy.

Known for her sarcastic humor and kind nature Jennifer impacted the lives of those around her in many ways. She had a unique ability to persuade everyone she new to attend church, emphasizing the importance of faith and community.

Jennifer Motter will be deeply missed by her family, friends and all those who had the privilege of knowing her. Her legacy will live on through her artistic creations and the memories of her infectious laughter and genuine kindness.
