Jennifer Leigh Frost
FAIRFIELD – Jennifer Frost, 44, of Fairfield, passed away Monday, Feb. 17, 2025, surrounded by her son and parents. It was a tragedy that she left us so soon.
Jen would light up any room she was in and always made everyone laugh and be happier around her. She had a personality that made you feel good just to be around her. Jen was a devoted mother, daughter, a loving friend and a source of endless inspiration. Even though she is no longer physically with us, her spirit lives on in the hearts of those who truly loved her. She will be forever remembered, cherished and loved beyond measure by many. Her love of life and people will always be a part of us. She enjoyed the outdoors and loved to walk her dog, kayak, swim, ski, paddleboard – any outdoor activity.
Jen always put the needs of others before her own – being a young, single parent with Ben as her only child. He was her world. She began working at an early age to support herself first as a CNA, later as a Pharmacy Technician, for many years as a Registered Nurse getting her degree from the University of New England in 2006 and continuing her education to later obtain a master’s degree from the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences (MCPHS) in 2017 – fulfilling her dream of becoming a nurse practitioner with a goal of helping many people.
She was so dearly loved and will be missed by her son, Ben; her parents, Ken and Susan; her dog, Bentley; family members; many many friends and coworkers as well as her patients.
She bought her home in 2012 and was so proud of this achievement and was so full of plans on renovating it, never thinking such a tragic event could happen in the middle of her renovations. Her son and parents plan on completing her dream.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
Any donations can be made through a GoFundMe page set up by Jen’s good friend, Nicole Lyford for her son, Ben. A compilation of stories and photos to share with Ben would also be nice way to try and help him through this grieving process that still looks unending.
