Jenna Lyn Barrette, age 21, passed away unexpectedly in a car accident on July 28, 2023, in Kenosha. She was born on March 8, 2002, and was the daughter of Joseph and Tammy Barrette. She attended Christian Life School, Lance Middle School, and Tremper High School. She currently was an incoming senior at Carthage College studying nursing. She attended The Tabernacle church and loved Jesus.
She loved spending time with her family, friends, and especially her cat Max. Her love for animals didn’t stop there as she worked at the humane society and fostered kittens and puppies in her free time. She also loved going to the beach and pool, working out with her sister, taking naps, and playing volleyball. She played competitive volleyball since she was 9 years old, including club, high school, and college. Jenna always lived life to the fullest. Just in the last few months, she completed her junior year of college, went on a Mediterranean cruise, and went to Summerfest and Country Thunder. Jenna made everyone around her feel special and loved. Countless people thought of her as their best friend. She had a smile and personality that would light up any room she walked into. Although many are grieving here, Jenna ultimately fulfilled her purpose on earth, and God called her home to Heaven.
Jenna is survived by her parents, sister Jordyn Barrette, “big brother” Jacob Delabio, grandpa Paul Barrette, grama Pepper Przlomski, and her many aunts, uncles, and cousins. Jenna is also survived by many close friends who she deeply loved. She was preceded in death by her best friend and grandpa Phil Knebel, grampa Andrew Przlomski, grandma Clina Barrette, grandma Shirley Barrette, and uncle Paul Barrette.
Jenna will be greatly missed by everyone who knew and loved her. A celebration of life will be held Saturday, August 5th, at The Tabernacle, 7951 36th Ave, Kenosha. Visitation will be from 1:00-4:00 pm with the service immediately following. In lieu of flowers, please make donations to Safe Harbor Humane Society.
John 8:12
When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

Dear Members of the Barrette Family,
My husband Dave and I were devastated to learn of the tragic loss of your beautiful daughter, Jenna. We were blessed to have met Jenna, Jordyn, and Gianna at the beginning of our Mediterranean cruise and we quickly became friends since we were all from Wisconsin. My husband and I will always be grateful for Jenna’s friendship, quick smile, positive attitude, and especially her warm, outgoing nature. She had a gift for drawing people to her, and she greeted us with such joy whenever she saw us during the trip. We will always remember Jenna with fondness and friendship. Please accept our sincere condolences and heartfelt sympathy as you grieve the unimaginable loss your family has suffered. May it give you peace and comfort knowing how much your precious daughter was loved, and how much she will be missed.
Sincerely,
Dianne and Dave Rasmussen

To the surviving friends and family of Jenna, I went to highschool with her for a short time. She was always kind and endearing. Very bubbly and sweet, I would have liked to know her. As a mother myself now, I know the pain you must be feeling is indescribable. Your daughter touched the lives of those she did not even know. May she rest easy.
