Jessica love listening to music and dancing, cooking, watching movies, painting and loved animals. She had the biggest heart and everyone that knew her loved her. To know Jessie was to love her!

She was preceded in death by her father, Brent Jarvis; an uncle, Brian Jenkins; her Paw-Paw, Jesse Jenkins; and her Nana, Judy Jenkins.
The family would like to issue a special "thank you" to the staff of Arkansas Health Center in Benton for the excellent care they gave her for the past ten years.
