Dear Sweet Jessica, Always and forever you will be in our hearts. I will always, always remember your loving, gentle spirit, your beautiful big smile, and your warm hugs. From your infant and toddler days through your entire life here on earth, you brought smiles to our faces and joy to our hearts. The bible tells us in 2 Corinthians 5:1 "For we know that when this tent we live in now (our bodies on earth)is taken down - when we die and leave these bodies- we will have wonderful new bodies in heaven, homes that will be ours forevermore, made for us by God himself, and not by human hands." Now that your pain has turned to peace, I believe you are singing sweetly and loudly with all God's angels. Keep singing our lovely Jessica...keep singing! Love, Aunt Mary Ann

My deepest sympathy to all of you that have loved and cared for Jessica. She will be missed but not forgotten. We all try and too often struggle to find a reason for our loved ones leaving us. It doesn't seem fair. But I've learned that we must see the good in it, because we can't change what has happened. Family is all we have, when times are tough, and there seems no where else to turn. Jessica has touched all of our families and I hope and pray that it brings everyone closer, even for a day. Let her life be an inspiration to be good, to be caring, to love each other through all of the differences we see in each other. Thank you, Jessica, for making me stronger. A somewhat uncle, Lee.

Jessica you will be missed by many here on earth, but we are rejoicing because you are no longer in pain. We may disagree with God's plan sometimes, but I know in my heart He knows what is best for us. I can't wait to see you one day again, singing your heart out with the angels when God calls me home. We love you so much. Love your cousin ~ Jen

A little something about my Jess, to the girl who stoled my heart,who tought me what famly was really about,no matter what was going on in the family. Jess always told me how much she loves me and how thankfull she was I was her aunt. She loved to go to church with me alaways thanking me for taking her.I had the privallage of being there when she gave her life to the lord at new Richmond baptist church.There she loved the people and the people love her she truley had a sptirt of loveing kindness. I truly miss her running at me with her arms wide open not only to get but to give.A special Jesse, huge and kiss our lives will not be the same with out her. love aunt Paula.

Hey Jessie, I miss you alot. I know it may have seemed like i didnt really care much but i did. All i can ever think about is the time that me and you went to the mall after your banquet and spent all your well earned money ! Im so glad that you asked me to come with you because i loved spending time with you. I really wish you could be here to see me graduate. But i know that you are in a far better place and that you arent in pain anymore. I just wish that i could have spent more time with you because you never know when your time is up. Im still in shock over your passing but i know that after time i will be ok. I just wish that i could have said that one last I LOVE YOU and gave you a big kiss. I know i will see you when my time comes and we can rejoice and be worry free ! Amber

We were so sad to hear of Jessica's death. Please know that you are all in our prayers at this time and that Jessica is suffering no more. She was a brave and wonderful girl who we will always remember. Although my own daughter never met Jess, she asked my mom and Grandma Pat about her all the time. She was such an encouragement to my daughter. Once again, please remember God in your time of need, and that he only calls the best home first. Love and prayers- Ken and Michelle Porterfield

Dear Friends, I was one of Jessica's eighth grade teachers at Macatawa Bay. She was one of my favorite all time students. She was such a sweet girl who always followed directions. I enjoyed just sitting and talking with Jessica about every day things. She will be greatly missed by many. You have all been in our prayers. God Bless you! Sara Gortsema

I was glad to have known this smilling happy young lady. I am also so glad that I know she recieved Christ as her personal Saviour while attending the teen ministries at New Richmond Baptist Church. We have often prayed for her and for her family. Our prayers for her will stop. Not that we do not continue to love her, but what could we tell God about her that He is not witnessing with His own eyes. We will however continue to pray for her family. Pray that god may find His way into each and every heart so that you may all be reunited with Jessica in the presence of Her Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Thank you for allowing us the prioviledge of knowing her. Pastor Senters Hebrews 2:12

Our girls club was saddened to hear of Jessica's struggle and passing. Jessica and Ginger came to Joy Club at our church in Holland for several years, and Jessica was always outgoing, friendly and had a great giggle! We pray that you will find strength and courage at this sad time -and hope in Christ. With love and sympathy, 14th Street Church Joy Club

I am the eldest daughter of James Sallis, the brother of Robert Sallis. My father was step-brother to Robert. I do not know any of our Sallis cousins, but recently was in touch with MaryAnn Abramson. We extend our deep sympathies on the loss of Jessica, who I think is my cousin Frank's daughter. Please keep in touch and say hello to Aunt Pat Sallis from Helen Mary Sallis

My Jessica. I have never signed this guestbook. I could not. I guess I was not strong enough and I thought,later,later, I will. It was 8 months yesterday that I lost you. It is still too painful to accept that you are not here. But, one thing I have come to understand is you ARE here all around me in everything and in my words every day. Know how truly loved you are and not a second goes by that you are forgotten. You are a missing piece of me that will not be replaced until I am with you again. Until we are put back together, I Love You Always, Mom

My Jessica,
How can time slide by so quickly? 6 years already the world has been without your smile and all the love you gave. The pain and emptiness is supposed to be better by now. I think you know the answer to that. No need for more words. You hear me everyday. Until we are together again. I love you with every breath and thought......

Today is your 32nd birthday. How I wish I could give you a hug and let you know how much I am grateful for the 19 years I had with you. If there was a way, I would trade places with you and give you the life you should have had. I am still grieving and I think of you all the time. I miss your smile and beautiful laughter. You are still here with me and always will be. Happy birthday and know you are celebrated!! Love always, Mom

You are now 33 years old! I can’t help but think what you would be doing now if you were here. I know you would have touched a lot of lives and spread your beautiful spirit to everyone. I know I say it all the time, but you are so loved and so missed. Sometimes I feel like you were just here with me and other times it feels you are so far away. I love you, I love you, forever! Just know I am thinking of you and wishing you a happy birthday today. Until we are together again.........Mom
