Jennifer and her husband “Doc” retired to the Huntsville area after a distinguished military career. Jennifer’s service to the military and its families continues in so many ways, some of which are highlighted in this episode - Alabama Military Family Liaison and the Semper Fi Task Force - to name just a couple. Jennifer also walks us through some of her hobbies and interests, the highlight being, at least for me, a beautiful photo she took and we discuss during the “picture pack” segment. A native of New Jersey, Jennifer is yet another example of how lucky we are in North Alabama to have committed citizens to serve each other and the greater good.
