Jessica Elwell Obituary

Jessica Marie Elwell, 33, passed away on October 12, 2025, in Parker, Colorado. Born on February 13, 1992, in Hampton, Virginia, Jessica brought warmth and creativity into the lives of those around her.

Jessica was a kind and caring soul whose passions reflected her vibrant spirit. She had a deep love for animals and found joy in the worlds of imagination and storytelling. Whether she was immersed in a good book, painting a new piece, attending comic-con, or exploring fantastical realms through video games and board games, Jessica embraced life with curiosity and enthusiasm. Her love for writing allowed her to express herself in unique and meaningful ways, leaving behind glimpses of her thoughtful nature.

She is lovingly remembered by her parents, Gerald and Janet Elwell; her siblings, Joseph Elwell and his wife Courtney, Emily Elwell, Andrew Elwell; and her grandmother, Betty Elwell. Jessica also leaves behind many aunts, uncles, and cousins who will cherish her memory. Jessica was preceded in death by her grandparents Bernice Wiercinski, Joseph Wiercinski, and Donald Elwell.

Jessica’s memory will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her. May her creativity, compassion, and gentle spirit continue to inspire all who were touched by her presence. A Memorial Service will be held on November 3, 2025, at 11:00 AM at Horan & McConaty 5303 E County Line Rd, Centennial, CO.

In lieu of flowers please consider making a donation to: Memorial Bench for Jessica at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo
