Memories / Jason Rabold (Friend)
Leigh...It has been forever and I just came across this beautiful memorial that you put together for Jess.  I'll have fond memories of her when she and Malissa were ALWAYS inseparable!  I know that she touched so, so many lives in her short life.  Its blatantly apparent just looking through this site and reading the beautiful, touching, and heart-felt words that so many have left for you and Christina.  After having children of my own, I can only imagine what you have gone through over these past three years.  Always remember that Jess will always be with you because she may have been stolen from you too, too early but the lovemark she left on your heart, nothing or no one can take that away from you.  God Bless.  - Jason... Don't ever hesitate to call if you just need someone to talk to, you or Christina...310.661.1454 Close

not the same  / Lauren March (friend)
Hi Leigh Ann and Christina.  I never even knew this sight was here.  Rhonda from Rillos told me about it tonight and I got on as soon as I got home.  I think this is awesome.  I miss Jess so much, as everyone does.  She touched so many people in ways that some didn't realize before her passing.  I feel SO blessed to have had Jess in my life, and I know one day we'll be together again.  I miss all of the times we spent together, and I haven't found a friend as true as her since.  I miss both you (Leigh) and Christina and I think about you often.  I've talked to Christina online, but haven't kept in touch like I should, but I plan to.  I miss being at your house and hanging out.  I love you, Jess.  Close

To Jessica's Mom from Joshua's Mom  / Rhonda Alspaugh

If tomorrow starts without me,
and I'm not there to see,
if the sun should rise and find your eyes
all filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
the way you did today,
while thinking of the many things,
we didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
as much as I love you,
and each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me,
please try to understand,
that an angel came and called my name,
and took me by the hand,
and said my place was ready,
in heaven far above,
and that I'd have to leave behind;
All those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away,
a tear fell from my eye,
for all my life,
I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for,
so much left yet to do,
it seemed almost impossible,
that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays,
the good ones and the bad,
I thought of all that we shared,
and all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday,
just even for a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you
and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized,
that this could never be,
for emptiness and memories,
would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
my heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me,
from his great golden throne,
he said, "This is eternity,
and all I've promised you.
Today your life on earth is past,
but here life starts anew."
"I promise no tomorrow,
but today will always last,
and since each day's the same way,
there's no longing for the past."
"You have been so faithful,
so trusting and so true.
Though there were times you did some things,
you knew you shouldn't do."
"But you have been forgiven,
and now at last you're free.
So won't you come and take my hand,
and share my life with me?"
so when tomorrow starts without me,
don't think we're far apart,
for every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart.

Jess' mom and loving family... i did not know jess as well as some, but i was lucky enough to have known her throughout highschool, we cheered together all through highschool and i am friends with both malissa and chris rabold, so i got to know her through being there when we were younger as well. I just wanted to say that i am lucky to have known her, she really was such a sweetheart, and always had a big smile on her face! My heart goes out to all of you that were close to jess, and you r in my prayers!                       ~Ashley Kohr

Meeting the hard way!  / Angie MOM To Angel SETH (friend)

Jess, I know that you and Seth are up there together.  How could two great people that should be here with us go so soon?  Keep each other happy and wait for the day that we can all meet.  Whatever you two did for your Mom and I to meet did work.  Now we have each other to lean on just like you two do.
