She was born on Dec 28, 1936, to Ava and Floyd Overholtzer in Tingley, Iowa. At 7 years old, Jenny was hit by a car walking home from school and was lucky to survive. Later she participated with the Tingley girls' basketball team in two state tournaments – while she was in 8th and 10th grades – coached by the same driver of the car – Coach Obermeier. On June 26, 1955 she was united in marriage to Howard Watson Tull. In 1961, Howard and Jenny bought his Grandpa Baker's farm in Diagonal where they raised their 3 children. As their family grew, they enjoyed many fun activities together, from watching grandchildren at sporting events, deer hunting and hunting wild hogs in Texas, and many vacations traveling from Costa Rico to Alaska and from coast to coast with friends and family throughout the years. Jenny held several jobs in her life but spent many years in factories (first Purolator and then Bunn-O-Matic in Creston, Iowa.) There she made many friends – she stayed on part-time after retiring to continue her friendship connections. Jenny devoted her life to volunteering and helping others. She was always active in the Tingley Methodist Church, participating and coordinating many events for the community and after school programs. She and Howard were long-standing contributors to the Tingley Lions Club and recruited many new members. Jenny and Howard also were dedicated EMS First Responders for nearly 20 years, providing emergency care to many in the Ringgold County community. Left to cherish her memory are her husband, 3 children, 6 grandchildren, 11 great grandchildren and 3 great great grandchildren. Jenny was preceded in death by her parents, Floyd and Ava Overholtzer; parents-in-law Irene and Alvin Tull; siblings Arlene Overholtzer, Cleone Johnson Hosfield, John Overholtzer; brothers-in-law Dean Johnson, Kenny Hosfield, Von Tull, Ronnie Tull, and a great granddaughter Ava Jaibree Frost.
