Why Jay’s Christmas:
Jay’s Christmas Party For Kids is a totally FREE event for kids to enjoy in Jeanette Lefebvre’s honor. Jeanette, also known as “Jay” was a housekeeper/ child caregiver to the Pomerleau family of ten children for over 40 years. When Jay passed away on November 16, 2006, Mr. Pomerleau wanted to honor her memory and her love for children and Christmas. Jay’s daughters and Pomerleau children created Jay’s Christmas Party For Kids and together with Vibrant Church celebrate Jay and Celebrate Christmas the first weekend in December.
~ Thank you Pomerleau Foundation and Vibrant Church for Sponsoring this Wonderful Event!
