CELEBRATING THE LIFE OF JESSICA ANNE HOLLAND

ON FEBRUARY 22, 1992, JESSICA ANNE HOLLAND WAS BORN TO

PROUD PARENTS, LEONARD, AND TANYA HOLLAND, IN POMONA

CALIFORNIA. JESSICA WAS THE YOUNGEST OF TWO CHILDREN

ALONG WITH HER BIG BROTHER LEONARD.

 

JESSICA WAS AN ARTIST. SHE “LOVED” TO DRAW AND FROM AN

EARLY AGE SHE WOULD DRAW ALL TYPES OF FIGURES AND

CHARACTERS. JESSICA LOVED PEOPLE BUT DID NOT LOVE

CROWDS. THE LORD GAVE HER A HEART FOR PEOPLE IN

UNFORTUNATE LIFE SITUATIONS, THOSE IN NEED OF LOVE AND

RESPECT. AS EARLY AS HIGH SCHOOL, SHE WAS DRAWN TO

EMPLOYMENT THAT ALLOWED HER TO HELP PEOPLE. ONCE IN

HER EARLY DAYS OF EMPLOYMENT, SHE ASSISTED WITH

OBTAINING EMPLOYMENT AND PROVIDING BASIC NECESSITIES

FOR AN UNDERSERVED POPULATION AND SHE BECAME UPSET

BECAUSE THE PEOPLE PROVIDING THE SERVICES ONLY VIEWED

WHAT THEY DID AS A JOB, NOT THE OPPORTUNITY TO POSSIBLY

CHANGE A LIFE. SHE HELD VARIOUS RECRUITING POSITIONS, AND

HER LAST POSITION WAS A SENIOR REGIONAL RECRUITER.

JESSICA LOVED ANIMALS AND WAS A MOMMY TO SEVERAL FUR

BABIES INCLUDING RABBITS AND DOGS FROM A ROTTWEILER TO

A TINY MALTESE.

 

SHE LOVED TO DO MAKEUP, STYLING HER HAIR IN MANY

DIFFERENT STYLES, AND DRESSING UP. SHE ENJOYED OUTDOOR

CAMPING WITH HER CHURCH FAMILY AND FRIENDS. SHE WAS A

GREAT SWIMMER AND LOVED THE TIMES SPENT WITH FAMILY

ON THE COLORADO RIVER, ON JET SKIS. HER PARENTS MADE

SURE BOTH JESSICA AND HER BROTHER WERE EXCELLENT

SWIMMERS AS THEIR LOVE FOR WATER WAS “VISUAL AND TOES

ONLY (SMILE).”

 

JESSICA’S BELOVED GRANDPARENTS PRECEDED HER IN DEATH,

ALONG WITH ONE COUSIN, TANYA DUMAS. JESSICA’S MEMORY

WILL CONTINUE TO LIVE IN THE HEARTS OF HER PARENTS,

LEONARD AND TANYA HOLLAND, HER BROTHER LEONARD

HOLLAND, II, HER AUNTS DONNA MITCHELL AND GINGER

HOLLAND, HER UNCLE HARRISON JEROME HOLLAND, COUSINS:

KALI, CHAD, JACOB, ARIENNE, AMIR, SHADONNA, KELVIN, AND KAWAN, AND

CHERISHED FRIENDS.
