Jenae was a vibrant ray of sunshine who instantly became the life of any room she entered. Loving and kind by nature, she always delighted in helping others and planning and coordinating fundraising events for the people of North Manchester. For the last six years, she was a wedding coordinator and relished helping people on their special day. She loved crafting for weddings, reading a variety of books and was a member of the Lions Club for the past five years. She also enjoyed playing card games such as Spoons, Left Right Center, and 5 Crowns but enjoyed each one more when she was winning. Like her personality, she loved “bling.”
Jenae is survived by her parents, Marvin and NeVonna Allen, North Manchester; one daughter Mikaela “Mikie” (Trevor Kelley) Crate, Warsaw; one brother Jason Allen, North Manchester; one sister by heart, Bernadette (Jonathon) Clark, Huntington.
