Jennifer M. Hall
Former Tewksbury High School Special Education Aid
TEWKSBURY: Jennifer M. Hall, age 39, a resident of the Delaney Drive Housing Community, passed away at home on Saturday, December 7, 2024, following a lengthy illness.
Born in Concord, MA on September 26, 1985, she was the much-loved daughter of Lillian M. (Robbins) Hall and her significant other, Barry Sullivan, of Tewksbury and the late Ronald A. Hall. Jennifer was the beloved sister of Melissa D. Hall, of Tewksbury and her significant other, Scott McMillan.
Jennifer was raised in Tewksbury and attended local schools. She graduated from Shawsheen Tech in 2005 and was a student in the Health Technology program.
In her younger years, Jen was an accomplished softball player with a mean fastball and an even better bat. She played for Tewksbury in both their town and travel programs and also for the Shawsheen Tech Lady Rams.
Any given day in the summer, you would find Jenn at the ball fields- from her little days watching her big sister play, to playing double headers of her own in the 100-degree heat, to just hanging out rooting her friends on. Softball was a true passion in her life. As an adult, her competitive edge carried on and she enjoyed playing in numerous billiard and dart leagues.
One of the things Jen enjoyed most was her time as a classroom aide at Tewksbury Memorial High. Working with the students truly gave her a sense of accomplishment and fulfillment. She loved making connections and helping students in the classroom and beyond.
As her health deteriorated over the years, she lost the ability to do many of the things she loved. However, that didn't stop her from making connections with people. She amassed a huge community of friends online who she treasured. She served as a friend, counselor & inspiration to many. Never afraid to share her struggles so that she could lift up others and give them hope, she was ready to help with an open ear, kind words, humor, sass and a few bad words sprinkled in. She had a gift for helping others navigate their struggles even as she was dealing with so many of her own. She left an indelible mark on those who knew her and she should be remembered for her kind soul and desire to help.
Her love for her nephews, Ayden and Jaxon was beyond measure. She was the proudest Auntie of "her two best boys" and they always were a bright spot in her day. Truly the apples of her eye, they could do no wrong.
Besides her mother, sister and nephews, Jennifer is survived by her Uncle Gary, of Peabody MA.
She was predeceased by her maternal grandmother, Barbara Robbins and her aunt, Donna Hall
A celebration of her life will be held at a later date.
