I've know my mamma for all of my life and that woman is the best person that i ever know in my life  she makes you laugh when you are hurting and makes you feel better when you are sick she was an amazing cook and loved her kids a whole lot enough to go to rehab and get better and stay off of drugs for the rest of her life she powered through her addictions and was a hard working mother for all the right reasons she was a fighter to put food on the table . she was a good person and all her worth in the world could not
match to the fact that i lost her too soon she was always pushing people to do there best and making people the best that they can be. i love my mamma and it still bothers me to this day hat i wont have her at my wedding.

I've known Jessica since I was 14. I remember when I 1st met her, we both worked at the Bobber cafe in Boonville. She was always that one unbelievably beautiful girl that everyone admired and wanted to be like.  Everyone loved her. She was just as cute as a button, had a great laugh.  She came over the day i had my 1st child,  she held her said how pretty she was, and just to see if we were ok. We saw each other off and on over the next decade or so, then the last time I saw her was at my children's father's funeral, Jason steding. I know she went thru some rough times and I heard like always she picked herself right back up and fought thru and won. Even though we weren't best friends or anything it breaks my heart to know she's gone. I just can't believe it. I feel so bad for her kids. I know she loved them so much. My heart goes out to her whole family!! I pray you all get thru this terrible time. Jessica was a wonderful person. She'll definitely be missed! R.i.p jessica!.

I had only a brief amount of time to get to know Jessica, but I was her Supervisor at  consumer advocates marketing. In the short time that I got to know her I found out that she has a lot of tenacity. She had a great personality and you could tell that she was just trying to get her life back together from all the junk that manifested in the years before. I am most certain that given the right opportunity she could’ve been very very successful with a career.    I think that she would’ve made an excellent coach at helping people get over there drug addictions as well. Even though I didn’t know her that well I am saddened at her death and wish that there was something I could do to help ease the pain for her family, but I know only time I can close over those wounds.  

We just wanted to express our condolences to Jessica's family and loved ones. So sorry for your loss she we will be missed.

When my children were growing up, my son Matthew Kelley and Jessica were very good friends.   They still kept contact with one another over the years since school.  There were times that Jessica, Matt, Ashley Bedell and Chip were at my house together hanging out.  I really enjoyed these youngins:)  I distinctly  remember Jessica's contagious laugh which made me laugh:)  She was always so upbeat and smiling.  She was such a beautiful young lady.  The last time I ran into Jessica was when she was working at the Isle of Capri in Boonville.  I was ecstatic to get to see her! Of course we had to hug one another and do some chatting to catch up.  She showed me pictures of her beautiful children on her cell phone.  You could see the love and pride she had for those children.  I was so saddened when Matt told me that Jessica was in a fatal car accident and she was no longer with us:(  Matt is devastated!  Yes, there are no words of comfort right now for Jessica's children, husband, mom and family.  I will share a little thought that I hold close to me since the passing of my dear, sweet father - I cannot see my dad in the flesh but I know that he is always with me and is one of my guardian angels.  He now is always around unlike when he was living and I would go visit.  This is soothing to me.  So..... Jessica's family please remember this.  If Matt or I can do anything please don't hesitate to ask.  God bless!  Karen R. Huggins

Jessica was an amazing person inside and out. She was definitely what I considered a woman of Christ coming from the places we had been in our past to who she became as a person. Jessica, Allison, and I were like the three stooges and they were both a huge support for me while I was going through the same Core program they had both already commenced.  Jessica I could call at anytime of anyday and no matter what it was she would always answer, listen, and believe if I needed her there with me then she would have came. She was so full of life and joy.  She loved her babies more than anything in the entire world and no matter what they were first. I'm gonna miss her so very much... the world wont be the same without her, but I know shes looking down smiling saying, " just wait till u all get here this place is pretty great." Lol.. forever in my heart until we meet again sweet angel 

Jessica was an amazing lady and an awesome mom to her kids. She was very involved in Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts! Her and I walked the parade with the girls and froze our butts off but our girls and boys won second place. She worked hard and dedicated much of her time to volunteering for both Girl Scout and Boy Scout Troops. She was  dedicated  to all children and it was always about them being safe. She was like a second mother to my daughter. She was an awesome listener and so funny. She could always make me laugh no matter how bad of a day I was having she was great.  A great friend that would give the shirt off her back to help anyone. I am going to miss her accidental calls when she was trying to get ahold of her sister. Lots of love and prayers to Brooklynn, Austin and Davin. XOXOXO

Love,
Amber and Emma Tanner

I only knew Jess for a short time while we worked together in Springfield, Mo. She had such an amazing and upbeat attitude. She shared some of the things happening in her daily life with me and I often wondered how she kept smiling and going.  Listening to her on the phones at work helped me to open up and be better at my job and I'll definitely miss her.  My condolences to her children first, as I know how heart breaking it is to loose a parent and condolences to all her family and many friends!  ❤🌻🙏🕯

If I had the words I thought would ease your pain, I would write them, but I know only too well that right now, there are no words. The coming seconds, minutes, hours, days and months will be the hardest you will travel. I heard a quote after we lost Michael that said, "Pain demands to be felt." No truer words exist. It's a path I wish none of you had to walk. Lean on each other. Keep your faith. Keep your love and your memories of your daughter, your sister, your family member alive within your hearts. I will be thinking of you and wishing for peace and acceptance to enter your souls. 

Jess had such a bubbly laugh and a smile that brightened the day. I was fortunate to work with Jessica and her children through the HeadStart program.  My deepest sympathy goes out to her family and I was so thankful to learn she had accepted Christ as her Savior. Davin, Austin, and Brooklyn you’re in my thoughts and prayers. Your momma loved you all so. Rest In Peace Jessica❤️🌹🙏

Jessica, your kindness and fun loving personality made working with you fun! Your "figher" personality was your traight. You will be missed by my entire Schwartz family! My husband said you were awesome to work with as well! Condolences to the family!
