Community Reaching Out to Help Jensen Family

It seems that whenever tragedy strikes, the Grand Junction area community steps up to help its friends and neighbors get through the ordeal.

Once again, tragedy has struck with the deaths of William and Tyler Jensen, two little boys who died following an incident on Powderhorn Road. Their father, Eric Jensen, was killed in an auto accident two months ago in Garfield County, and their mother is facing questions from Mesa County authorities.

According to KKCO,  funeral services are going to be provided free of charge by Palisade Funeral Home, and Colorado National Bank has offered to provide candles for a vigil. Additionally, a  fund has been set up to help the family pay for Tyler’s medical expenses. Tyler died Monday night after being taken off of life support.

If you would like to  help the family, you can make a donation to the Tyler Jensen Memorial Fund at U.S. Bank locations or at O'reilly Auto Parts in Clifton, Naggy McGee’s in Grand Junction, Munchies Pizza and Deli in Fruita, Judy’s Family Restaurant in Fruita, or Palisade Café and Grill.
