Barrow, Jennifer B.
Jennifer B. Barrow WEST HAVEN - On May 1, 2005 my best friend, wife, daughter
and mother to our boys, Jennifer B. Barrow, 39, left us while doing what she
loved best, riding horses. She was born June 25, 1965 in Ogden to James W. and
Francene Stamey. She married Scott Driscoll and they later divorced. She then
married the love of her life Troy H. Barrow on May 21, 1994 and together they
raised their two sons, the joys of her life, Brian and Tyson. Jenni graduated
from Roy High School in 1983 and started her life in the working world. She
was employed at Chromalox, Triple Stop, Jetway, and was currently employed at
Hill Air Force Base with L-3 Communications. Jenni was a great friend and
dearly loved by all that knew her. She never forgot a birthday and her
relationships with her family and friends were the most important things in
her life. Jenni loved to dance, but lived to ride her horses (Easter, Tripps,
and Chisum) and taking care of them the very best. She was a previous member
of Jr. Posse, and 4-H Club. She is a current member of NBHA, AWBRA, District 2
USWRCA Club and The Wild Ones Riding Club. Jenni was a leader and an example
of excellent horsemanship. Her desire and love for horses made her excel in
her skills in riding and she received many awards, trophies, saddles and
recognition as a wonderful horsewoman. The last few years Jenni was an avid
barrel racer competing all over the state and won a saddle in the XBA in
Salina in 2002. Jenni was a member of the West Haven LDS Ward. Jenni is
