Jennifer Nielsen Family Statement

The family of Jennifer Nielsen released this statement:

Jenna was a loving mother, wife and daughter. She had a very outgoing personality, was everyone's friend. Jenna and her Husband Tim had 2 wonderful sons; Schyler, 3, and Kaiden, 11 months. They were expecting their third son Ethen on July 8 th. Jenna's family recently relocated to the area from Utah when her father and husband's jobs were relocated. She enjoyed living in the Raleigh area for the warm weather and the friendly people. She fit right in.

She recently took on the job with USA Today to deliver newspapers to earn extra money prior to the birth of Ethen. The job took her out in the early morning hours each day so Tim could watch the kids while she worked. When she returned home each morning Tim would head off to work and Jenna would take care of the children throughout the day.

The family appreciates the efforts of the local authorities and wishes that everyone respect their privacy during this tragic time.

The family is currently working on arrangements for a service in Utah and any donations can be made to:
