Misc. Notes
According to a 1983 letter written by her daughter, Barbara Holdridge, Jessie fell downstairs when pregnant and did not recover from the fall.
Inscribed on her tombstone:
“She lived. She loved. God gave.
God took again the life.
The love is with us yet.
And even the life we may regain,
If we have life with God.”
