    Her Story

    [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”profile-story”]Jessica A. Pereira of Utica, NY, born February 9, 1986 in Chile, South America passed away Monday, January 12, 2015 after giving birth to her first child, a son, Logan, at Crouse Hospital.

    A resident of Syracuse, from the age of 10 until her marriage to Gary in 2013, Jessica attended Syracuse public schools and was a graduate of Manlius Pebble Hill School, OCC, and SUNY Cortland. She earned a Master of Education degree and began her career as an ESL teacher at Dr. Weeks Elementary School in Syracuse. As a non-English speaker upon arriving from her native Chile, she was a compassionate hardworking teacher dedicated to helping her students achieve proficiency with their new language.

    With passion and diligence, in her 19 years residing in central NY, Jessica tenaciously pursued her work and interests. She enjoyed skiing, ice skating, tennis, photography, baking and her dog, Talia; she cherished being a wife to Gary, an aunt to her niece Ali, and loved her family who will miss her generous caring spirit profoundly.

    Jessica is survived by her son, Logan; her husband, Gary Pereira; sister, Vanessa Stark; brother, Claudio Przepiora; parents, Carolyn Stark and John Przepiora, and niece, Alexandrea. She is also survived by many aunts, uncles, cousins, friends and family in Chile.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”profile-links-header”]

    Her Story

    [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”profile-story”]It is with extraordinary grief that we share the passing of Janelle Lee Bailey Palmer, who died in her Idaho Falls, Idaho home on Thursday March 13, 2025, aged 36, of a spontaneous coronary artery dissection.

    Janelle was born in Midland, Texas to Richard and Sandra Bailey. She spent a short time as an infant in Barnwell, Alberta, Canada. The majority of her childhood was spent in Klamath Falls, Oregon with her three siblings; Kim, Nathan and Brian.

    She graduated from Henley High School as class valedictorian, but her life-long distinction was her ability to draw people in with her innate kindness and warmth. She truly was a friend to all.

    In the years following high school, Janelle received her Associate’s Degree from BYU-Idaho. A devoted member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Janelle served a mission to Sao Paulo, Brazil.

    Following her mission, Janelle earned a BS and Master’s Degree from BYU in Communication Disorders. She worked as a Pediatric Speech Pathologist at Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center, a fulfilling job that led to a blind date with Shane Palmer, who won Janelle’s heart.

    Shane and Janelle were married on July 14, 2018, in the Idaho Falls Temple. Janelle’s greatest joy was in her motherhood and she and Shane were blessed with four beautiful children, a fulfillment of Janelle’s most earnest dream. Janelle will be deeply missed by her husband and children, her family, her friends, and the many lives that she touched in her time on earth.

    Janelle is survived by her loving husband Shane, her children Bailey, James, Louisa and Clara, her parents Richard and Sandra Bailey of Klamath Falls, Oregon, her siblings Kim (Nick) Barney of Grant, Idaho, Nathan (Alisa) Bailey of Klamath Falls, Oregon, and Brian (Kay Sea) Bailey of Klamath Falls, Oregon, her parents-in-law Mike and Kerry Palmer of Moreland, Idaho, and her grandparents Henry and Jean Davis of Provo, Utah. Janelle is preceded in death by her grandparents Junior C and Jean Bailey.

    Janelle’s memory will be especially cherished by her 20 nieces and nephews, to whom she was like a second mother, her sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law, and her many aunts, uncles and cousins.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”profile-links-header”]

    Her Story

    [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Molly Theresa Ramsay, age 33, from Lynn gave her life in childbirth giving life to her twins Logan and Theresa. It is a far, far better thing she did, than have ever done.

    Molly was born January 16, 1985 in Lynn. She was the beloved wife of Brian A. Ramsay of Lynn and loving mother of Olivia, Logan and Theresa. She was the beloved daughter of John E. Bishop of Lynn and the late beloved Margaret M. Bishop. She leaves her wonderful brothers Sean P. Bishop of Pasadena, CA and Matthew L. Bishop of Gastonia, NC. She also leaves numerous nieces and nephews, friends and neighbors.

    Molly will be remembered for her kind soul, her contagious laugh and the way she could make the world smile without hesitation. Molly spent some time after high school as a successful massage therapist before devoting her life to caring for her daughter, Olivia, as a stay-at-home mom. She wanted nothing more in the world than to be a great mother, wife, sister and an amazing daughter.

    Molly graduated from Lynn English High School, class of 2003. She loved to sing, she loved drama and most of all she loved the friends and connections. She often said drama was one of the best experiences ever.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”profile-links-header”]
