Jessica's life was marked by her unwavering will and her remarkable ability to bring joy to those around her. Her laughter was infectious, and she had an exceptional talent for lightening the hearts of her family and friends with her humor.

Though she had a stubborn streak, it was this same determination that allowed Jessica to embrace life fully and without reservation. She was a loving and thoughtful individual, always considering the needs and happiness of others before her own. Her family was her world, and she cherished every moment spent with them.

Jessica's memory will be lovingly remembered and cherished by her devoted parents, Sanjuanita Gonzalez and Jesus Antonio Leon; her siblings, Janette Leon, Stephanie Zuniga, Cassandra Leon, Elizabeth Gonzalez, Julio Gonzalez, Candace Leon, Natalie Leon, Jose Antonio Leon, and Jesus Santiago Leon. Her grandmothers, Odilia Aguilar and Melida Bororquez, will hold her in their hearts, as will her adored niece, Serenity, and nephews, Elijah and Joseph.

She was preceded in death by her grandfathers, Juan Francisco Aguilar, Jose Leon Zavala and her uncle, Daniel Aguilar, who have welcomed her into eternal rest with open arms.
