Jessica Gray Obituary

Visit the Rogers-Hovatter Funeral Home - Milford website to view the full obituary.

Jessica Nicole Gray was called home to our Lord at the young age of 36 years old due to cervical and vaginal cancer on April 17, 2025.

"Jessie, Bessie, Bess" was the daughter of Gerald Gray (who passed away in November 2017) and Janie Postles David.

Gray suddenly passed at Bayhealth Hospital in Milford, after being really sick for months.

Jessica is survived by her life long partner Ronald Freisleben, and her 5 children: Jade Swauger, Jasmine Swauger, Jennifer Swauger, Jase Swauger, and Juliet Swauger.

She will be truly missed and she was truly loved by her huge loving family. Jessica was always there for her kids and the people she truly cared about. No matter who needed something she was always there to give. Gray always loved singing songs with her family, spending time together, and just having fun. She will be truly missed and deeply loved. It's not goodbye it's, see you later.

Services are private due to family wishes.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
