She was a very dear friend of mine and I could walk to her house! We were quite young but I still remember how happy she made everyone with her gorgeous smile and laughter that was contagious. Gone too soon.

When I was recently hired at The Jekyll Island Authority and working for her dad, Pat Duncan, I was attending a company Christmas party, I believe. Jessica, who was three, I think, couldn´t see what was being presented or performed. I put her on my shoulders, which pleased her immensely. She stayed there for a while .

I so enjoyed working with Jessica at the Gathering Place during the summer Main Events. She loved being a part of skits and videos that helped to usher in her peer group to the events. Always available. Always with great interest and eager to grow and "taste and see that the Lord is good".
Gone too soon here, but know the Father has her and she is good. Thank you Jessica for a gracious heart. Grace and peace to your family.

If you ever heard her silly giggle, watched her dance, love her dog and just have a great, real conversation I am so sorry for your loss. She was a light. One of a kind. Please come out to celebrate her life.
Much love and peace to the family and friends missing her.
