Re: Jessica Passed Away Last Night

No
No
No

I will never forget the day I met Jessica in San Antonio. Her picture and exuberance had led me to picture this tall dominate figure---and she was a tiny spitfire! Such a strong, intelligent, beautiful inspiration. I'm so glad her family was with her and I'm sure her father was waiting with opened arms. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and loved ones.


I feel battered.
