Jessica Marie Crawford, age 53, of Washington, DC, passed away on December 5, 2024 at her home.
Jessica was born on September 3, 1971 in Boston, Massachusetts to the late Richard Francis Crawford and the late Johanne Marie Piscopo Crawford Rone.
Jessica worked as a Human Resources Specialist for the federal government for many years. Over the course of her career, she supported the U.S. Capitol Police, the Patent & Trademark Office and the U.S. Navy. Jessica was a beautiful human being with an incredibly generous and loving heart. She enjoyed the simple things in life: being with her friends, time at the beach and helping those she loved to understand how special they were to her.
She is survived by her loving sister, Stacey Crawford MacMillan; and three beloved fur-babies, Diana, Frankie and Pee Wee. She is also survived by her Aunts Pat Bates, Mary Lancaster (Maurice), Barbara and numerous cousins.
In accordance with her wishes, Jessica will be cremated. Her ashes will be scattered in the ocean along with her late fur-babies, Bob, Lucy, Jackie and Tommy. A Celebration of Life will occur Spring of 2025. Details to follow.
If desired, memorial contributions in Jessica's honor may be made to the Humane Rescue Alliance online at https://www.humanerescuealliance.org.
