Jennifer Dumont Quiet ’86

After a courageous battle with cancer, Jennifer Dumont Quiet of Hopkinton, NH, passed at home on April 5, 2020 with her family by her side. Jen was born on August 16, 1968, in Westfield, MA.
She grew up in Southampton, MA, and was a graduate of the Williston Northampton School, where she excelled in lacrosse and hockey. She went on to receive degrees from the University of New Hampshire and Fitchburg State College. She began a career in social work with special need clients on Cape Cod where she met her devoted husband Mike. In later years, Jen entered the field of education testing and worked with Measured Progress in Dover, NH and Aquifer in Lebanon, NH.
Jennifer was happiest when camping or skiing with her family. She loved long hikes with her favorite dogs and playing music with her friends. She was the ultimate “Mom-Fan”, a side-line regular, proudly cheering for her boys at every game.
She is survived by her husband of 25 years, Michael Quiet; her loving sons Carter and Colby Quiet; her sister Andrea Dumont ’88, brother-in-law Michael Badger and nephew Alex Badger of Westborough, MA; her brother Michael Dumont ’84 of Easthampton, MA her parents Richard and Nancy Dumont of Southampton, MA; in-laws Ed and Merle Quiet of Bradenton, FL, and many supportive aunts, uncles and cousins who loved Jen for the amazing woman she was.
Family and friends will gather at a later date for a celebration of her beautiful life. In lieu of flowers, a go-fund-me scholarship has been established for Carter Quiet, a sophomore at UNH and Colby Quiet, an entering freshman at Keene State.
