Being raised in Arizona, she attended Acacia Elementary and graduated from Greenway High School. She also received her Associates Degree while spending an abundance of time growing and furthering her education. Jessica dedicated herself to being a nurturing caregiver, always spreading her love and light to all in need.

Jessica was the source of unwavering warmth and laughter. Not only did she perform her best at work, but in absolutely everything else she did. Known for her infectious sense of humor and her ability to make anyone feel instantly welcome, she lived her life guided by immense generosity and a deep commitment to her family. Her laughter was contagious, and anyone in her life felt her caring and loving nature. Whether she was hosting a holiday gathering, offering quiet support during a difficult time, or simply sharing one of her famous stories, her greatest joy came from nurturing the people she loved. She taught us the importance of finding beauty in the everyday and how to face challenges with grace, a lesson that will continue to resonate through the lives she touched. Jessica had a love for cooking, hiking, journaling and growing her faith with our lord and savior Jesus Christ. She valued her family, faith and was the pillar of everyone around her. Her vibrant spirit and beautiful way of seeing the world will sorely be missed.
