Obituary

Jessica Renee Loebig is remembered by most from her loud laugh and love for talking. Friends, described her as an avid karaoke enthusiast and Tetris fanatic.

She was born and raised in San Jose, Calif. with her older brother Travis and younger sister Amy.

The first 18 years of her life, Jessica was seen leaping and twirling as she had a passion for dance. She was a member of the Pioneer dance team, and found true love in performing ballet.

Through dance Jessica quickly gained a passion for music as well. She began attending live shows and performances, and attempted to learn to play guitar.

“I took Jessica to her first concert when she was 13,” said father Frank Loebig. “We had second-row tickets, and I think it was one of the most special nights we were able to have together.”

Jessica spent a majority of her life intrigued by her studies, as she was the first person of her family to attend and graduate from college. She studied Public Relations, and made the most of her time at San Jose State University.

In her time at San Jose State University, Jessica was a resident advisor, orientation advisor, member of Alpha Phi Omega, Controller for Associated Students and Treasurer for the Public Relations Student Society of America.

While at San Jose State University she also fell in love with her boyfriend of three years, Alexander Monney. After meeting in 2005, the two were inseparable and enjoyed snowboarding, traveling and movie-going together.

“Jessica just loved to smile, and even more she loved to see others smile,” said her mother Eileen Loebig. “I think she was most happy just knowing that others around her were happy.”
