Jennifer Lynn Rue, 51, of Grand Marais, passed away at Essentia Health on Tuesday, Feb. 6, 2018.
Jennifer was born in Watertown, Minnesota on August 13, 1966 to Gordon and Marlee (Stone) Rue. She graduated from UMD with a degree in sociology. Jennifer’s career was in social work at Cook County Public Health and Human Services and DRCC. Jennifer’s enthusiasm for football was boundless. Just three weeks ago, she was able to visit the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio with several close friends. Jennifer harbored a dry, commentarial sense of humor that was only unmatched by her innate loyalty to her friends and those she cared about.
Jennifer is survived by her mother Marlee Christensen; siblings, Renae (Darcey) Christianson, Steve (Karrie) Rue, Doreen (Candace) Rue, Toni (Paul) Pearson and Mark (Sheri) Rue; aunt Catherine Neiberger; nieces and nephews Simon, Phoebe, Noah, Mackenzie, Mitchell and Bryce; dear friends Liz, Sherri, and Renae; as well as numerous others.
A gathering of family and friends to celebrate Jennifer’s life will be held from 2-4 p.m. on Saturday, February 17 at Cremation Society of Minnesota, 4100 Grand Ave., Duluth. Services entrusted to Cremation Society of Minnesota (218- 624-5200).
