Jessica was adventurous and explored life with a passion. She loved art and was a very talented painter who created amazing images for family and friends. She liked listening to music and just hanging out with friends. On a rainy day or a quiet night, Jessica looked forward to curling up with a good book, especially a suspense novel. She was loved more than words can say, and she will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
