Jennifer came into our world on June 9, 1984. She is the third of four children.
She graduated from Ben Lomond High School in 2002. She attended the OWATC pursuing a career in Cosmetology. She went on to get an education as an Advanced EMT. All while raising her three children. She went to work at the U of U’s G.I. department. She also worked at SLCC as an instructor. Jen then moved on to pursue an education at Salt Lake Community College. She put herself through Peace Officers Standards and Training. She graduated and went to work for Davis County Sheriff’s Office! She worked in the corrections department, which involved more training. She later took a position in the ankle monitoring program. She was elected to the Employee Association Board.
She loved to hike, camp, paddle board, doing puzzles playing games and white water rafting. Hosting girls’ night for her sisters and nieces. Flavored sodas were a must. Along with Disney movies, reading books and crocheting.
She met the love of her life Steven Lewis while working at the Sheriff’s office. They were married June 30, 2023, Just 3 days before an accident would take Jennifer and Steven’s lives.
Together they lived life to the fullest. Laughed long and hard and loved unconditionally.

Her parents Daryl and Colette Peterson, sister Tonielyn (Jason) Jorgensen, two brothers, Daryl Lynn II(Amber) Peterson, and Daniel (Afton) Peterson! Thirteen nieces and nephew and two great nieces.
