Jenny was one of the first big influencers of my life after graduating college. I worked at Bennett Tool and Die for 6 1/2 years. It was a great opportunity. Some of my favorite memories were the office Christmas party where Eli and Jenny would stuff ornaments with money then let you pick your ornament out of a bowl. I remember my first Christmas bonus and ham as well which shocked me as a kid out of college working my first real job. Appreciate Jenny and Eli's generous hearts.
As I learned more about stock trading, Jenny and I spent some time talking about investing. I remember her story about walking into Cracker Barrel and saying something like, "This place is busy. Good time to buy some stock in Cracker Barrel." She was right. ;)
To Jenny and the Bennett family, thank you for giving me the opportunity as a inexperienced college kid to intern and work at Bennett Tool and Die. You made me feel welcome, invested in me, and taught me a lot about life and business.
Sorry for your loss. An amazing woman.
