Jessica Jusino

The most beautiful blue-eyed girl, Jessica R. Jusino, was born 41 years ago to Teddy and Bonnie, and passed away one day before what would have been her deceased father's 68th birthday. Jessica leaves behind her three kind and loving children of whom she is very proud: Tristan who she loves more than life, Xavier who she considered her "brother," and Ariyah who she always says is brave, amazing, and will always follow her heart. Cornelious Evans, Bonnie's second husband and his family played an important role in Jessica's life from 12 years old through her mid-twenties.

As a child, Jessica was active in dance, scouts, modeling, and beauty competitions. Jessica did exceptionally well in school and was an avid reader from the early age of 3, with a love of mysteries. Although she thought herself shy, she was extremely funny and had many close and loving friends. I will miss Jessica waking me in the morning always with something funny.

Jessica was unpretentious and quiet, but she had no problem speaking her mind. Jessica had many hobbies including ghost hunting, cooking, journaling, drawing, shopping, makeup, movies, and gardening. She loved working with the soil to create beautiful butterfly and vegetable gardens. We are blessed to have her gardens still with us. Jessica also loved cooking and baking with a signature meatloaf adored by her children. Jessica cared for all animals, especially llamas and pandas, as well as the family cats Tania, Blackie, and Meow, and puppy Mabel.

Life handed Jessica challenges with her father Teddy, her brother Tim, her grandfather David, her grandmother Mary, and her uncle Teddy all passing away, but she dealt with them as best as she could. She lived this life loving those who loved her.

There are many friends and family who love her: her mom Bonnie Lynne; her stepdad John Dumont; her children Tristan, Xavier, and Ariyah; her grandmother Catherine Cummings; and her aunts, uncles, and cousins Phil, Carmita, and Angel, Rose, Bob, and Bobby, Jose, Betty, and family, and Karly and Jay. Deandre is Jessica's forever love. Ron was her special friend for whom she cares deeply. We look forward to the day when we meet again.
