    Rita & Kevin - I am very sorry to hear this has happened to your family. No parent should lose their child at such a young age. You are both in my thoughts.

    My heart is saddened by the loss of such a young girl. To the parents, loosing a daughter so unexpectedly, will be the most difficult thing you will endure in this life. I knew Jessica briefly through the relationship she had with Brian. She also helped me with taking photos of homes and writing descriptions. She was amazing with photos! Brian, I am truly sorry for your loss as well. I know how very much Jessica means to you. May God give you strength through your grieving process and wrap his love around you all!

    I just want the family to know they raised a beautiful and sweet woman. I know I only got to know her for a short time but she was always willing to put a helping hand to anyone that needed it at work. I really miss seeing her there. She passed by me recently and I had told her you have beautiful hair. It was swaying back and forth as she passed me. I am sorry for your loss.

    I went to Perry Meridian with Jessica. She was always shy and quiet and I loved it about her so I befriended her. And she befriended me, too. She was always so sweet and beautiful. RIH Jessica. Prayers are with the family and the rest of her friends. I'm so sorry for your loss.

    I remember her biography in speech class like it was yesterday. She talked about how she had been born a premie, and ever since then I've always seen her with a fighting strong spirit...I just saw her recently at work and she looked great. Keeping her family and loved ones in my prayers.
