Jess...you were a courageous young woman that inspired more people than you'll probably ever know. Your beautiful giving, loving spirit was contagious and you always had a beautiful attitude and the fierce spirit of a cancer warrior while battling this horrific disease with such grace and beauty. My prayers for your family and friends...we will always remember you and miss you forever. May you rest in the arms of our Savior.

Bruce and Debbie- I’m so sorry for your loss! I remember when my daughter bowled with Jess at Coloma Lanes when they were young and they won a trophy; Your company in Coloma was their sponsor. She was such a sweet, beautiful girl! God only takes the best! She truly was an angel...😇 Prayers for you and her family to find comfort soon! 🙏😔

Jessica was a wonderful person who was a real reflection of what a good person should be. Her smile and those shining blue eyes always pulled you into her giving soul. Remembering when she was born and the beautiful rosebud lips in her picture has been a gift for me. A wonderful memory and I pray for peace for Debbie and Bruce, Matt, and her beautiful kids. I believe she is home and that is a beautiful place to be. <3

Jessica was such a beautiful person inside and out. Bruce and Debbie you raised a wonderful daughter. Matt you made a great husband to this fantastic young woman. Lauren and Levi you had the best mom in the world. Jessica's love of life and everyone surrounding her will always be there. The definitions of daughter, mother, best friend and beautiful soul doesn't come close to describing Jessica. Fly high with those angels! Love to you all! Love always your cousin-

Absolutely the most amazing friend I could have ever asked for. Bruce and Debbie, you raised an absolutely incredible Mom, Wife, Best Friend, Friend, and all around amazing Woman. You are both incredible parents. Matt - we will never leave your side. We will be involved in you and your families life just as much, and we will act as if Jessica is with us in everything we do. I made Jessica a promise on Christmas Day and I will never break that promise. Lauren and Levi - You had the best mom in the World, and I promise to tell you stories about how amazing she was. Jessica - I miss you. I feel lost. I’ll never forget the last text I got from you, the last call I got from you, and Christmas 2020, the last time I was with you. Everyone who knew Jessica now has an amazing Angel watching over them. God took you WAY too soon, but it’s clear he just needed someone as strong as you up there. Strongest woman I know. - Gab and Norm

I had the privilege of meeting Jessica once I believe it was her Aunt Sharon’s birthday party in GA. She was a lovely girl and all the photos I saw she loved life and her family. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends.
