Saratoga County is remembering the life of a fallen soldier.

Twenty-year-old Army Spc. Abigal Jenks died earlier this month during a helicopter training exercise at Fort Bragg in North Carolina. Her body was returned home Thursday.

The U.S. Army Honor Guard helped transfer her casket when it arrived at Albany International Airport.

Jenks grew up in Saratoga County and graduated from Saratoga Springs High School. We heard from members of her family at the airport.

"I didn't really know how I would feel," said Mary Jenks, the late soldier's mother. "When I saw the plane...my heart just filled up... a lot more. And I'm so relieved that she's home now."

Funeral services will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday in Wilton Baptist Church.
