I had the priviledge of knowing jessica during the short time that she resided at UBC. My memories of her was a beautiful smile and caring spirit. My prayers go out to the family. May god give you the strength to let go of this child. May she now rest comfortably in the arms of he that called her home. I am so sorry for your loss.
