The Devotion to Family and Friends
J essica’s family, including those not blood related, served as the source of her pride and joy. As she did in all other aspects of her life, Jessica preached excellence and dedication. Jessica not only talked it but she made sure that everyone lived it. The sister that had your back. All of her nieces and neph- ews were the benefactors of walking steps behind her as she navigated her work in the community. She spoke of them often to anyone who would listen. She sent them care packages or a surprise cash app that would come right on time. She transported them to school, paid for books or anything else required. The piece de resistance was her ability to create family meals that are legendary. Holidays were a special time at Johnnie’s home, affectionately known simply as “84th Street”, where her ex- tended family could always count on good food, good conversation and a feeling of well-being.
