HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE! THANK YOU!

Let your ACTIONS speak louder than words!

I call for anyone who knew Jessica, anyone who lives in her neighborhood and cares, and anyone with a sense of decency in this city and believes her death to be an awful tragedy, to place in whatever manner comfortable for you, hearts along the 3000 block of Chartres near where Jessica lived. For those of you who don't know the area that well, it's the same stretch of block that Dr. Bob has his compound on.


Please read below.

To all of our neighbors and friends, if you knew Jessica, go to her friend's site that was set up this past week and honor the memory of a wonderful person, who came to our city because she loved it and believed in it. I won't dishonor her memory here and now by mentioning the ills of New Orleans, there will be time enough for that.


I call on everyone in her neighborhood and anyone passing through her neighborhood to honor her memory by placing a heart along the 3000 block of Chartres.
It's time for us to show our love for a fallen sister in the belief of a better tomorrow.
