I met Jen in late 1985 through a mutual friend. We didn't go to the same High School but ran into each other a lot. The first time I ever drank too much it was Jen who stayed up with me all night to make sure I was safe. She was the first person I ever knew who died. I hate the fact her death and its aftermath was international news. It made it feel like it was a television story and not the life of a real person. I still miss her.
