Hi all,

I thought I would let you all know how the service for Jenny went last week.

We were absolutely overwhelmed at the turnout last week, as the church was packed...... standing room only at the back. It was full of family, friends, neighbours, members of the Police investigation team and a lot of Jenny's friends. It was also good to see so many people from in and around Richmond that we don't even know, but they turned up nonetheless. Some people had travelled a great distance and we are grateful to everyone who came. The service itself went well and it was nice. Obviously very emotional and moving but Ann and I are so glad that we did it. All the readers read exceptionally well and a lot of nice, kind things were said about Jenny. We have so many people to thank for all that was done for us and we will get round to them or write over the next week or two. We are also aware that there were a lot of very kind people helping in various ways behind the scenes and we would like to take this opportunity to thank them as well. We have been touched with everyone's goodwill and generousity. The proceeds from the collection will be split betweeen the National Missing Persons Helpline who helped us enormously, particularly in the early days and the Music Department of St Francis Xavier School, who done a lot for Jenny. My brother Terry, is looking at a way of possibly putting the order of service on the blogspot as a link, in due course, though we're not sure yet if it will be feasible.

Those that are local, or those that have seen some of the media coverage, will know that the investigation goes on and the searching continues. Now that we have paid tribute to Jenny, we all need to hope and pray that she is found soon......... very soon.

Ann and Brian,

I am so sorry you have been through such a terrible time over the last year. As a parent myself I cannot begin to imagine how painful this must be for you. I do hope that the police find the answers soon so you will finally know the truth. God bless you all and watch over Jenny...

Love from Mary-Anne (Denny's daughter) xxx

I Hadn't Heard Of What Happened To Jenny As I Live In Northallerton And Didn't Hear Much About It.
The First Time I Fund Out About Jenny Was When I Was IN My Dads Butchers Down Finkle Street In Richmond And There Was A Poster Displaying This Website And That She Had Gone Missing In June

I Can't Imagine What You Are Going Through But I Wish You All The Best
