Affectionately known as Beth by her family and childhood friends. She graduated from College Park High School in 1977. On July 3, 1980, she married the love of her life Rich Hudzinski. They celebrated 42 years of marriage and made lifelong memories together. They settled in Jacksonville Florida where they raised three sons, Richard John, Thomas Daniel and Michael Robert.

Jennifer loved her family dearly and was a caring wife, mother, daughter, sister and grandmama. Jennifer loved traveling with Rich for business trips to south Florida, spending time at the beach, and going to new restaurants. Trips to the zoo, gardening, and playing chess were just a few things that she loved doing with her grandkids. Passing on family traditions to the next generation was very important to her, teaching her sons and daughters-in-laws family recipes and baking Christmas cookies with her grandchildren was the highlight of the holiday season for Jennifer. She was at every soccer, baseball and football game cheering on her grandsons.
