Jessica L. Gurney of Manchester, New Hampshire, passed away unexpectedly on June 18, 2026. Born July 27, 1983 in Bangor, Maine to Diane (Fletcher) Goulet. Jessica attended school in Manchester and graduated from Memorial High School.

Jessica’s life was marked above all by her deep devotion to family. She was an incredibly loving and generous mother, always guided by a fierce determination to provide for her children and ensure their happiness. Her sons, Lucas and Jordan, her stepson Christian, and stepdaughter Maiah, were truly the center of her universe. Every decision Jessica made was filled with a mother’s devotion, and there was nothing she wouldn’t do for her kids.

Her partner and soulmate, Bruce Moore, was the love of her life, and together they nurtured an intense home filled with laughter, care, and togetherness. Jessica and Bruce shared an inseparable bond, finding joy in life’s simple pleasures—especially their cherished trips to the beach.

Jessica’s generosity and warmth extended beyond her immediate family. She was a devoted sister to Heather Paquet and brother-in-law Eric, and a caring sister-in-law to Jessica Sanborn and Beth Moore. She cherished her relationships with her nieces, Alexys and Jolie, her nephews, Levi and Riley, and valued every moment she was able to spend with her great-aunt Ginny Oliver and great-uncle John.

Family was the foundation of Jessica’s life instilled in her from birth by her mother, grandparents, older siblings, Uncles, Aunts, and cousins. She was blessed to have the large family she had supporting her throughout her life. She was predeceased by her beloved mother, Diane Goulet, and her stepfather, Alfred Goulet, both of whom she loved immensely, her “Dad”, Dennis O’Donnell, whom she loved very much, and her brother James Sanborn, whom she was very close with prior to his death.

Jessica’s legacy is one of intense, unconditional love, hard work, and a steadfast commitment to those she held dear. She will be remembered not just for the sacrifices she made for her family, but for the trust, love, and warmth she brought to others with an intensity beyond what words could ever fully express.
