"Jessica was a kinda beautiful soul that was not afraid to speak her mind. I was blessed for the years that I had to spend with her. Very optimistic along with being a hard worker. She was also the girl sitting in bed at 2 am and be eating peanut butter with her fingers while eating a can of sardines. I?ll never forget that Christmas morning. This loss weighs heavy on me, but she would slap me in the head for being sad. God got his angel and she about to be running the show above. She is very much still here in spirit. My love and prayers go out to all her family and friends. Till we meet again best friend Xoxox. Stay strong ?. You are my rock. I love you ?? "
