Jennifer Tansey Briley, loving wife and mother, passed away peacefully into  Heaven on Friday, March 18, 2022,
in  Sherman, Texas.  She was surrounded by loved ones at the time of her passing.

Jennifer Patrice Tansey was born on September 21, 1980 in Fairfax, Virginia.  Her family moved to San Jose, California in 1981 and then to Ft. Worth, Texas in 1986.  She graduated from Haltom High School in 1999.  She attended Midwestern State University and graduated in 2004.  During school she was involved in the Alpha Phi Sorority and formed many lasting friendships with her sisters.  Jennifer was involved in many organizations including Big Sisters, Wichita Falls Junior League, American Heart Association and Muscular Dystrophy Association.  She worked selflessly for all who needed her.  Jennifer enjoyed working in the Hospitality and Management industry for most of her professional life.
Jennifer was an integral part of our close-knit family.  Jim and Cheryl are so proud of the wonderful, warm-hearted woman she became.  Jennifer and her sisters were each other's biggest supporters and confidants.  Jennifer's devotion and love for all her family is endless.
Jennifer and Mark were introduced through mutual friends in the fall of 2009.  They were engaged the following year and married on November 19, 2011 in Wichita Falls, Texas.  Together they enjoyed traveling, raising their 2 wonderful children and supporting each other's passions.
Jennifer is survived by her loving husband, Mark and their children,  Henry (7) and Jane (3); parents, Jim and Cheryl Scott Tansey; sister, Christina and family, Linus and Esther; sister, Melissa and family, Stephen, Charlotte and Oliver; and grandmother, "Nana" Elizabeth Scott; and father and mother-in-law, Steve and Mary Ann Briley; brother-in-law, John Briley and family, Nicole, Jackson and Connor; sister- in-law, Stephanie Sattler and family, Josh, Lincoln, and Leighton; and sister-in-law, Katheryn Fisher and family, Blake, Benson and Collins.
In addition, Jennifer is survived by an extended family of aunts, uncles, cousins, and others too numerous to mention but still loved beyond words.
Funeral services for Jennifer Briley were held Wednesday morning, March 23, 2022 at St. Patrick Catholic Church in Denison, Texas with Father Randall Fogle and Deacon Gary Vogel officiating.  Burial followed at Calvary Cemetery.  A rosary was held in her honor on Tuesday evening at St. Patrick Catholic Church.
