I'm Nawal Apura, a childhood friend of Jessica. We shared a journey from our early years and moved to Arizona together, driven by our shared dream of providing better lives for our children. Over the years, as our careers advanced and our ability to support our families grew, we found joy in our lives. However, tragedy struck this past weekend during a camping trip at Roosevelt Lake. Jessica's sudden passing has left her fiancé and five children to navigate a world without her, filled with grief and the daunting task of piecing their lives back together.

In tribute to her memory and to assist her fiancé, U.S. Army Veteran Jose Soto, and their children (Chris & Urijah 12, Mila 9, and 14 month old Liam & Xander) - we've launched a GoFundMe campaign. Please consider donating to our GoFundMe campaign in honor of Jessica's memory and to support her fiancé and their children during this incredibly difficult time. Your contribution will make a meaningful difference in helping them navigate the challenges ahead. Thank you for your generosity and support.
