About Jennifer: Carefree from the Beginning




Jennifer Harber was born May 4, 1981, the second child Ed and Beverly Harber. She was the younger sister to Emily Harber Rucker. At the time of her passing, she was a student at Highlands High School in Fort Thomas, Kentucky.

Jen was carefree from the moment she could walk. One favorite memory is the time she and her family went camping in Brookville with a church group. According to Emily, the girls were being changed out of their wet bathing suits in a tent by their mother. Once Bev turned her back, Jen (then age four), took off out of the tent, streaking around the campground as naked as the day she was born ... and loving it.





Not surprisingly, her favorite dish as a kid was naked spaghetti - plain noodles in a bowl.

Jen grew up to be a spunky, energetic teenager who loved music, soccer and reading. She also adored anything with a rubber duck on it. Fiercely loyal and loving to her family, she was also a true friend to those around her, never judging others by their "cover" and always willing to stop everything and help someone in need. That compassion inspired her dream to one day become an emergency medical technician, following the footsteps of her father and sister.
