When I hear the words, "Hey Pretty Lady" I will always think of you with that deep voice of yours. You always had a smile on your face. Its hard to believe that you are gone. It seems as though it was yesterday that we talked at Dazzle. You would always send me msgs about all your new Miss Me jeans b/c you knew I loved them as much as you did:) I pray that God wraps his arms

As we mourn in the unexpected loss of Jessica today always remember:

Jessica will forever live in our hearts,
In the happiness we knew, in the dreams we shared.

Jessica will still breathe,
In the lingering fragrance, windblown, from her favorite flowers and perfume.

Jessica will still smile that beautiful smile in the moonlight’s silver,
And laugh in the sunlight’s sparkling gold.

Jessica’s voice will always speak in the echoes of the words we’ve heard her say again and again- Thank you Lady.

I am very sorry for your loss & I will forever continue to pray for the survivors, whose hearts are broken into.

“You can shed tears that she is gone, or you can smile because she has lived.You can close your eyes and pray that she'll come back,or you can open your eyes and see all she's left.Your heart can be empty because you can't see her,or you can be full of the love you shared.You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday, or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.You can remember her only that she is gone,or you can cherish her memory and let it live on."

I met Jessica around 3 1/2 years ago at my job! Let's just say she had a smile that lit up the whole restaurant! Beautiful eyes! Just beautiful all around! Met Miss Mattie around 2 1/2 years ago and she is the spitting image of her mother! I loved any and every time that I got to see them! Would visit at their house! Play with Mattie! Jessica had the best conversations in the world! I miss her terribly! Praying for all of her family & friends but especially sweet beautiful Mattie!

Teardrops fall from Heaven
As they do my eye
Angels show their sorrow
Bow their heads and cry
They see our breaking hearts
They feel our loss and pain
They show they understand
By letting out the rain
Heavenly angels reaching out
Trying to wash it all away
Wanting us to know
We’ll see her again one day
God called her home
For reasons we don’t know
And one day we’ll rejoice
Happy she got to go
But for now we’ll hang our heads
For an angel who had to fly
Teardrops fall from Heaven
As we say goodbye

Written
