Your light shined in every space you were in. Hearing of your loss shattered something because you could just feel the light, love and tenacity from you. Sending love to all those who loved you fiercely during this time of bereavement. May your legacy live on forever. -TruLe'sia ("Leah")

Jesssss! Where do I start? Your life has definitely spoke for itself! You were the light in many dark areas! Meeting you during the time where everyone was experiencing some lows such as the pandemic where we all came together to escape reality for a sec was sooo amazing. It says a lot about you to reach sooo many and never even left your house. Some were lucky to meet you in person unfortunately I wasn't one of the ones. But your love and kindness never felt any different. Continue to rest and shine like alway. We miss you already girl! One time for the one time AURTHAAAAAAAAA!!!! We love you girl! ~Uniquelyyy

Sending my love and deepest sympathy to your family. Jessica you and that smile of yours will be truly missed. Rest peacefully Queen.

So Sorry For Your Family's Loss, Prayers Of Love And Comfort.

I extend my deepest condolences to the family. I will always remember your beautiful smile and your light around you. It shined so brightly at Savista. Jessica take your rest.❤️

Love, an amazing gift that Jessica gave unconditionally. She was wonderful, kind, and blessed any and everyone that she met. Her smile warmed the Earth for days and created a deep treasure in your heart. She was irreplaceable and precious. A delicate diamond and a precious flower full of boldness, grace, and unconditional love. May she rest peacefully.

To everyone that knew her and was blessed by her very presence, I pray that you will have peace and find comfort in every good moment and memory that you had with her.

Continual Blessings ⚓️💚 Shequilla Hill

Whatever the character limit is here, it's not enough to tell you what you meant to me. Yes....you will always be my favorite. Yes....I will forever celebrate National J- Day. Remember we called ourselves the broke version of Salt n Pepa?! We were Cinnamon n Suga but could never agree on who was Cinnamon and who was Suga. But that was your gift, everyone here has one thing in common and that was your ability to make them personally feel special, loved and supported. We had an Angel walking amongst us and we didn't even know it. I know you were extremely happy in your last days. You were finally in your dream job and every goal you set for yourself with your writing was coming to pass. I know you'll miss us but I also know that you are overjoyed to see Sean, your Dad and Granny again. While my heart has a hole that just can't be filled, one day I'll take comfort in the fact that I have another Angel to watch over me. You were always more than a co-worker/work daughter to me, you were my friend. I love you. LB

I was so sorry to hear of Jessica's passing and will remember her and her family in prayer. I was fortunate to work with Jess on occasion and was always impressed by her professionalism and knowledge. More importantly, Jess was a pleasure to work with and always had a smile on her face. MJ Grabowski, Savista.

We met in college through friends and bonded because we had lost our fathers at a young age. Every Father's day up until a few years ago we would check in with each other. Know that you will always be in my heart. Please say hello to my dad for me. Sending condolences to your family and friends. Love Meedy

Jess, you brought so much light and sparkle to our HR Team and our personal friendship. You are such a fierce, positive, and bright woman and I am so honored to be blessed by your joy. You had such a huge impact at Savista and I wish you saw the outpouring of love you are receiving. I miss you, your smile, your laughter; and my heart is broken that you are gone. To your mother, sister, aunt, niece and extended family and friends, please accept my deepest sympathies for your loss. I grieve with you. Sarah Davis, Savista Family

MY SINCERE CONDOLENCES TO THE ENTIRE FAMILY. David Jefferson

Jessica is the kind of person you feel lucky to have shining in your life. For more than a decade I was that kind of lucky. Our work family is so much dimmer now without her light in it. To her family and friends we share in your grief and sorrow. I hope than in our grief we don't forget to be grateful for having the chance to know and love her. She was the best kind of people. She was selfless, supportive, encouraging and joyful. I am sending my prayers and condolences to her mother, sister and extended family. Jessica I am forever changed by having known you. Rest well, you are still my "favorite".

Jessica I love you to the moon and back Thank you for all the conversations phone calls dates I appreciate you so much you taught me and show me what real love is and I appreciate it My heart will always have you there I pray peace over the family and everyone in Jessica's life Thank you for inviting me into your world into your circle of friends and family I appreciate you so much I will never forget you not a day will go by I will always remember you I love you very much.

REVELATION 21:4 "AND HE WILL WIPE OUT EVERY TEAR FROM THEIR EYES, AND DEATH WILL BE NO MORE, NEITHER WILL WIPE MOURNING NOR OUTCRY NOR PAIN BE ANYMORE. THE FORMER THINGS HAVE PASSED AWAY". I hope this beautiful promise of God to resurrect the dead here on earth fill your hearts with comfort and peace, soon we'll hug them again.

"Whodewhooo",the way we greeted each other, so it's only right I start this message any different. Jessica, or as we say "Bestest Bestest", I don't know how to go on without you. You were my voice of reason, my confidante, the yes to my no, my keeper of secrets, my sister, my cousin, my daughter's "Sister", my best friend. I am going to miss your infectious life, the way you would light up a room, your encouraging words, your prayers, your game nights, the infamous beach trips and so much more. You were the glue. They don't make friends like you often. You truly was ONE OF ONE. I'm going to miss you so much. I know that your father, grandmother and your favorite, Sean met you at Heaven's Gates and you are at peace. You will forever remain in my heart! I love you, "Bestest Bestest"💚🕊️

My deepest condolences to the family. Jessica I will miss your laughter and the way you care about the people you come in contact with. I will miss our chats and the excitement you had when sharing your new work. I love you to pieces and will miss you terribly. Sleep in peace my friend. Sending my prayers to her family.

Condolences to the family. SIP classmate, HHS c/o 07

Jessica, I can say SO many good things about this young lady. Jessica and my sister Canetta were friends ever since they were "sandbox" age as they often said. I remember her always wearing a beautiful smile and having an encouraging word to say. I was so proud of her and all her accomplishments. Whenever she was in the room, you knew she was there. I send my prayers to her Mom and sister and I know that God will bring you the comfort that you need. ALL her other family and friends, I pray for you as well, God has given you so many good memories to cherish. SIP Jessica and know that you will be missed but not forgotten.

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
