Obituary
Jessika Kaye Bragg, age 39, passed away at Bronson Hospital on November 2, 2026. She was born in Kalamazoo on February 15, 1987, the daughter of Jeff Conklin and Kathy Reedy. Jessika was a loving mother, daughter, sister, aunt and friend who will be missed. She had an adventurous spirit and her outgoing personality made her a joy to know. She loved gatherings with family and friends. Bonfires, trips to the beach at South Haven and spontaneous road trips and nights out were all fun memories Jessika leaves behind. She also enjoyed the quiet and peaceful moments of life, taking walks and spending time watching sunsets. Above all Jessika loved her family and was especially proud of her two children. Watching them grow into young adults was the greatest joy of her life. Jessika’s smile, sense of humor and kindness will forever be remembered.

This is hard to take that Jess is gone. I know she was struggling. Never thought she would be gone so soon. She had her hole life ahead of her. See you on the other side Jess.
Jessika is one of the most kind hearted people I have met. She has a big heart and helped so many family, friends and strangers to ensure their needs were taken care of. Jessika leaves a legacy of joe to love unconditionally and how we should treat each other in our deepest time of need. I cannot thank her enough for being there for me in one of my darkest times. She is loved and will be deeply missed.
