Jessica Christine Allen Obituary (1988

Our beloved and sweet Jessica Christine Allen was reunited with her big sister, Nikki Rae Allen, on May 25, 2020. Jessica was born in Bountiful to Kari and Jerry Allen. Anyone who knew Jessi knew how big her heart was and what a wonderful person she was. She lit up any room she walked into. Everyone also knew that she didn’t have a fearful bone in her body and was extremely adventurous. She loved river rafting, zip lining through the rainforest in Seattle, and even base jumped off the Stratosphere in Las Vegas. She was always up for a good adventure with good company. She loved family get togethers, she especially loved BBQ’s—she definitely knew her way around the grill. Jessica was always that person that was just one phone call away and had your back when you needed her most. Jessi touched the hearts of many and changed us all for the better. She will be greatly missed but never forgotten. Jessica is survived by her mother, Kari Hansen of Payson; father Jerry Allen of Seattle; step-father, Frank Powell of St George; brother, James (Jimmy) Grantham of Georgia; little sister, Savannah Stilson of Payson; two nephews, Blaize Simmons of Santaquin and Braiden Jarvis of Spanish Fork; honorary nephew, Kenny Kay of Salem; her only niece, LunaLynn Nicole Powell of Payson; aunt, Tara Allman of Orem; grandmother, Dixie Wilikins of Payson; grandmother, Barbra Arnold of Washington; her companion and soulmate of which she was planning their viking wedding in Denmark, Steven Krutsch, and numerous cousins. Jessica is preceded in death by her grandparents, Richard (Dick) and Theresa Rae Danner of Orem, and her big sister and true soulmate, Nikki Rae Allen. Services will be held at Berg Mortuary, 185 East Center Street, Provo, Utah. There will be a viewing Friday, May 29th from 6-8:00 p.m. and again on Saturday, May 30th from 9:30-10:50 a.m. prior to the funeral service at 11:00 a.m. We will then have a short graveside service. Due to the COVID-19 laws some of you may not get to attend the funeral so we will be hosting a potluck dinner to celebrate her life Saturday, May 30th from 5-8:00 p.m. at Payson Memorial Park, we will have a video playing of her as well. So please bring a potluck dish and your memories of Jessica. Her favorite colors were blue and pink but mostly blue so please incorporate these colors into your outfits, thank you.
