Dear Charlie and Judy
I am saddened all over again remembering that Jessica was taken from you 25 years ago.
I lost my son just 3 years later and I know it doesn't get much easier with passing time.
Thinking of you and your family. You are in my heart and prayers.
Love, cousin Vickie

I never met your Jessica. She was beautiful and so loved. I lost my daughter almost 2 years ago so I'm sure they are friends in heaven. There is no greater loss than losing your child and my heart goes out to your family. May you all be filled with beautiful and loving memories until you meet again. Sending prayers and love to all of you

I did not know you're beautiful daughter, but I just watched the documentary! No words I could ever say would make it better. I lost my son in June of 2006 but it was not in the way your daughter died. I have so much empathy for people who have lost a child as it is the hardest loss ever. I pray that your family is doing as well as can be. Just wanted to express my heartfelt sympathy to all of you! God bless and keep you you have been through more than any one should ever have to have go through. Love and prayers!

Today I saw a documentary for Jessica. I was a neighbor of the Carpentets in Waukegan years ago. My oldest daughter played with Heather. Although time had passed we still miss our loved ones. We will forever treasure the time we had and now God is taking care of them.

I didn't know you or your family personally, but I will never forget any of you. I prayed for all of you on the day that our Lord called you home. I don't think that any of us can ever forget nor understand why, but I do know that God has reasons that are not meant for us to understand but rather for us to place our faith in him and know that you are at peace and that the man who took your earthly life will certainly suffer God's wrath. I did then and always will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. I'm sure that your light shines beautifully in our Lord's house, thus my lighting this candle as a symbol of your presence there.
