Jessie took such good care of us at the Sodexo Café here at work. She always made coming down to see her an adventure and had a knack for knowing how to get people trying new food. She lit up everyone's day! She is so missed. My deepest sympathies...

I don't even remember the last time I saw Jessica. We were so close in high school. Loved playing ball with her and just hanging out. Many prayers and much love to you all. She will be truly missed by the world.

I watched the photo gallery, I did not know Jessica, but my daughter is the same age, and the love I have for her is the same as you have for Jessica. I am so sorry for your lost. I can't imagine what you feel, because we are all different. but I do know a child of your own should never go before their parent.
The lost is great. My prayers will be said for you and your family and for your daughter Jessica, who I know will be missed so very much.
