Wedding Party
Katie Stewart

I have the joy of knowing Jenny since our early childhood days, and it's been a beautiful journey growing up alongside her and seeing the remarkable woman she is today. We first met in elementary school, where our bond was formed over playful afternoons filled with laughter and imagination. I fondly remember the countless hours we spent in her basement, surrounded by a plethora of Barbies, designing elaborate stories and adventures that were only limited by our imaginations. Our vivid creativity truly knew no bounds! From there, our friendship blossomed through fun-filled days of board games, where we learned the thrill of competition—and the importance of good sportsmanship. We also shared some unforgettable moments playing the 'dark game'—an adventurous pastime that both scared and thrilled us in equal measure. Bowling outings together were always a highlight as we cheered each other on, celebrating strikes and giggling at our fun attempts. And let's not forget the delightful afternoons we spent baking in the kitchen, where our collaborative concoctions often turned into delicious creations. Throughout the years, Jenny has been a constant source of joy in my life, and it’s truly a privilege to witness her stepping into this new chapter with Mark. I can’t wait to celebrate the love and happiness they have found together.

Best Man
I have known this old fart, Mark, my whole life so for me this is a disadvantage on how I met him but when I think back, I remember when I was younger going out rail fanning with him and Joe and being out there causing trouble. I also remember him teaching me how to be a mean SOB for football. With all the experience I have had with him I would never wanna change it for anything in the world. Love you dad...now go tie the knot already!

I have known Jenny since second grade. She is like a sister to me and we spend a lot of time together singing karaoke, playing games, going to trivia, and just hanging out. My son, Logan, loves Jenny also!

From my earliest memories, Mark has always been part of my life. Not only did we go to school together, we also went to the same church and were confirmed together. We also spent lots of time together playing baseball, basketball, and football and as we got older we thought we were cool cruising East Washington Ave. I consider myself very fortunate to also call him not only my best friend but also my brother (from my other mother).

I have known Jenny a long time, since probably 4th grade. We have been very best friends since.

I've known Mark for as long as I can remember. Mark's mom was my den leader for cub scouts. We played many of backyard baseball, basketball, and football games. Some of which ended with one side or the other getting mad to end the game. Mark is my brother from another mother and will always be my brother.

It all started when we both played on a bowl league called Tipsy Tuesdays over a decade ago. Jenny was and still is a better bowler than I. We hit it off right from the start chit chatting while our teams bowled against each other. I wasn’t quite 21 at the time but Jenny was the first person to ask me to a house party, hers. I have had such a blast at her parties in her basement bar. From themed parties to playing games to just hanging out. Always having a blast with Jenny no matter what we do. My favorite party, and I think hers too, was the Halloween party we threw together at her house. From the creative food we had, to creating a murder scene at the bottom of the basement stairs. (Not suspicious at all … lol) For a short period of time, I did move in and live with Jenny. From that point we became closer and helped each other through some tough times. Also had some amazing times. When I moved in with Jenny, she ended up finding and adopting her ultimately best doggie ever, Ozzy. He was a special boy that Jenny never knew she needed until he came into her life. I know Ozzy is looking down and very much watching over her and Mark for eternity. Can’t wait to make more memories and go on adventures with what will now be our hubbies!! Jenny, I love you and you deserve all this love and affection on your special day.

I had the pleasure of meeting Jenny when I moved to Deforest. We were at the same daycare. They assigned her to me to make sure I made it to school. We quickly became best friends. Her family quickly became my second family. Sleepovers, movies, game days, all the fun you could ask for in a bestie. I am forever grateful to have been placed in her life. She is my first bestie and friend who I have had the longest!!

My name is Travis Tait, and I'm Mark's 2nd cousin. Life is funny. I met Mark and his brother Matthew when I was little and thought this guy doesn't like silence because he did all the talking. In our early years, we only saw Mark maybe once every 4- 5 years. Through the years of lots of growing up, heartache, and loss, we lost touch until Mark and Hayden made the trip from Wisconsin to Utah for a visit. That's when we really made a friendship and found a common obsession of the Denver Broncos. The funny thing about family is that you never lose that sense of belonging you just pick up like you have been there for each other all these years. That's what it's been like with Mark. It feels like we have been in each other's lives all this time. Mark has made it to Utah twice now, so it's my turn, and what a great reason to make the trip to Wisconsin. To celebrate his marriage to his bride Jennifer. Congratulations to you both. I'm really happy for you, Mark.

Jenny is my first cousin and only cousin on the Sherry side! Growing up on the farm for a few years and my favorite memories were when I would stay a week in the summer growing up! More than happy we finally reconnected and can get together a few times a year! I love you Jennifer and I am beyond happy, excited, and blessed to call you family! ❤️

I met Uncle Mark and his mom on Simpson St., now Lake Point Dr., when I was in kindergarten riding the bus. We've been family ever since and I will always love him and his family forever ♾️ ‼️
