COLORADO SPRINGS — Jennifer Markovsky was one of the three people killed in a shooting spree at a Planned Parenthood clinic here Friday, her father told The Denver Post on Sunday.

John Ah-King said his daughter, a 35-year-old married mother of two, was accompanying a friend to the clinic when she was killed.

“She was the most lovable person,” Ah-King said from his home in Hawaii. “So kind-hearted, just always there when I needed her.”

Ah-King said he found out about his daughter’s death from his other daughter who had been contacted by friends.

“I couldn’t believe it,” Ah-King said through sobs. “I just messaged her Thursday to say happy Thanksgiving.”

Ah-King said Markovsky was the mother of a young son and daughter.

Ah-King said his daughter moved to Colorado several years ago. She grew up in Hawaii.

Her mother, when reached by The Post, declined to comment.

Julia Miller’s brother, Paul, was married to Markovsky after the two met in Hawaii while he was stationed there in the military.

Miller said the two moved to Colorado roughly a decade ago when Paul Markovsky was reassigned.

“She’s just a really sweet woman that would do anything for everyone,” Miller said.

“He’s struggling dealing with the children and everything its hard to let them know that their mother is gone,” Miller said of her brother.

Miller said Markovsky was a stay-at-home mom who was devoted to her children.

“I’m still a little bit shocked,” she said. “I don’t think it’s quite hit me. You hear about these horrible things all of the time, but this is so close to home.”

Markovsky’s Facebook page is filled with thoughts about parenting, photos of her children hiking and thoughts about her husband.

“Paul remembered the first day we met and that make (sic) it seven years now!” she posted in January 2013. “I love you Paul!”
