Remembering Jennifer
A life held close in memory
Jennifer Gale “Jenni” Pursley Robertson was born on August 5, 1985, in Austin, Texas, and grew up in the Dripping Springs area as the daughter of Roy and Gwenda Pursley. A graduate of Dripping Springs High School (class of 2003), Jenni went on to earn a Bachelor of Arts in English from San Diego State University in 2006 and later completed an MBA from the University of Phoenix in 2010. Those academic pursuits reflected a love of words and a practical curiosity about how organizations work.
Professionally, Jenni was known as a thoughtful operations leader. She served as Operations Manager / Head of Operations at Voltage Control, where colleagues remembered her as a steady, compassionate presence who helped shape the company’s culture and supported teammates through both everyday challenges and growth moments. Her employer and coworkers honored her memory in the months after her death, describing her as someone who created value for clients and care for people on the team.
Most of all, Jenni’s life was shaped by her role as a mother to her son, James Daric Robertson. Friends and family recall her as fun-loving and adventurous, someone who cherished ordinary family moments and took joy in the small, bright things of daily life. Public notices identify James as a six-year-old whose smile and energy were central to the family’s life.
Jenni’s life ended in mid-October 2021; public records and memorial notices place the family’s deaths in October 2021. Those who knew her have sought to remember the person she was — a daughter, a mother, a friend, and a dedicated professional — rather than the tragic circumstances of her passing. Her family, friends, and colleagues continue to honor her memory through quiet remembrances and through initiatives in her name at work and in the community. While public information about many private details is limited, the available records make clear that Jenni’s life mattered to those who loved her and that she left an imprint on the families and communities she touched.
