When Jenny was a young girl she loved working with her father at the movie theater for 10 cents a week.

She enjoyed fishing, camping, going to the casino, and spending time with her family. 

She was preceded in death by her parents, Charles and Dollie Haynes; her husband, Harold; her daughter, Rae; and her grandsons, BJ and Raymond. 

Per her wishes, no services will be held. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that memorials be made to the Alzheimer’s Association of Oregon.
