Jennifer Lynne Markham Schlagel
July 25, 2020 – January 17, 2020
Jennifer Lynne Markham Schlagel, 48, of Berthoud, Colorado, passed away January 17, 2020.
Jennifer was born July 25, 1971, in Loveland, Colorado, to proud parents Bill and Elizabeth Markham of Berthoud. She grew up learning and loving farm life and graduated from Roosevelt High School in Johnstown, Colorado in 1989. She attended Adams State College and earned a bachelor’s in psychology. Education was very important to Jennifer. She continued on to Colorado State University where she earned her bachelor’s in Agricultural Education and a master’s degree in Agriculture. She loved teaching and learning. She started her teaching career in Cedaredge, Colorado as an Ag teacher and FFA adviser for four years. She left the education field for a year before ending up at Bill Reed Middle School in Loveland, Colorado where she enjoyed teaching for 19 years until she became sick.
She met the love of her life, Bruce Schlagel, and they were married September 16, 2000. Together they had two beautiful daughters, Anna (16) and Cate (14), who kept her very busy. In her short time here, she loved working with and showing cattle, working on their family farm, traveling, playing and coaching volleyball, golf, attending concerts, hanging out at the pool and spending time with family and friends- simply living life to the fullest. She was a wonderful daughter, wife, friend, listener- always the first to offer help of any kind. She was active with the Larimer county 4-H program and was instrumental in starting up the Thompson Valley FFA program. She was very proud of the agricultural programs locally and supported any way she could, right up to the end. She lost her battle with leukemia Friday, Jan. 17, 2020.
