Born April 5, 1951 in Windber, daughter of Levern Severns and Maude (Radcliffe) Miller. Preceded in death by parents, step father Jack Miller, infant son Richard Patrick, brothers; Joseph, David, Maurice, Donald Lee, Thomas, nephews, Richard Allen Howard Jr. and John Sandoval.

Brother Wayne Severns, and sister Ruby Severns Howard. Also survived by numerous nieces and nephews. Jenny took pride in her home, always keeping it meticulous inside and out. She loved listening to oldies, gospel and country music, she enjoyed auctions with her husband, Sunday drives, baking, Family Feud, Let's Make a Deal and playing BINGO. She enjoyed going to Mass and loved the Lord. Jenny had a feisty, fun and sharp personality and a love like no other for her grandchildren. She was an 8 year breast cancer survivor who was a very strong willed lady and fought very hard for the past 10 years with multiple health issues. Finally her body could fight no more and she was ready to go home and be with Jesus. The family would like to extend their deepest gratitude to Conemaugh ICU staff and the staff at Select Specialty (Nikki and Autumn) for their love, care and support given to Mom during her three week stay. Also a special Thank You to Denise for the support over the past few days. Jenny will be missed by her husband, children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. By request services will be private. Geisel Funeral Home-Johnstown is honored to serve the family.
