CEDAR RAPIDS, IOWA — Jennifer Elizabeth Park (Hosch), formerly of Nora Springs,Iowa, and current resident of Cedar Rapids Iowa, took her place in heaven on January 2, 2016.

Jennifer made her mark on the world on August 30, 1979, born the first daughter of Scott Allen Park of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and Patricia Ann Robuck (Baldwin) Osage Iowa. Jennifer spent her early school years at Nora Springs-Rock Falls Community Schools and finished her high school career at Washington high school in Cedar Rapids.

Jennifer was gifted with her hands and could make something very great out of something very little. She used her gifts to bless others with home cooked meals, hand crafted gifts that made you feel special. Jennifer had a compassionate heart for others in need and spent her time helping heal the brokenness of the world.

Nothing consumed and overflowed her heart with joy more than her four children. Her children kept her heart tethered to the world. Each of her children possesses the best qualities of their mother. She had a fiery personality that left an impression on you. Her voice and her laugh were intoxicating and could fill a room quickly. Jennifer loved to laugh at her own jokes.

Jennifer loved her three sisters and prided herself on being the eldest. Family was the most important thing to her, and everyone she connected with she considered her family.

Jennifer’s memory will be honored by the surviving members of her family: her parents Scott Park and Patricia Baldwin; her four children: Drake, Vanessa, Isabell and Alexandra; her three sisters: Tiffany (Kyle) Mussman, Dannielle Grady, and Brooke Park; her three uncles: Rodney (Sue) Park, Jerry Thele, and Harold Duffy; her aunt Shellie (Rick) Simon; her nephews: Ethan, Bentley, and Carter; her niece Claire Elizabeth; her cousin Amy Hasley; and her loving and compassionate ex-husband Nick Hosch.

She was greeted in heaven by her grandfathers, Bernie Robuck and Skip Thele, her grandmothers, Elaine Robuck and Geraldine Thele; by her great-grandmother Opal Kruse; and aunt, Jeannie Schnapel.

A service to honor Jennifer will be held at 1 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 5, at Rhythm Church, Mason City, Iowa. Memorials in care of the family may be sent to: Tiffany Mussman, 807 N. Washington Ave., Mason City, IA 50401.
