Jessica Margaret

Damm

Jessica M. Damm, 45, of Hampstead, North Carolina, passed away on Thursday, November 5, 2026.

Born in Lake Charles, Louisiana, Jessica was the beloved daughter of Patricia Faye Simon Fontenot and the late Wilbert George Fontenot.

A proud United States Marine Corps veteran, Jessica lived a life defined by strength, compassion, faith, and love. While she carried many titles throughout her life, none were more meaningful than those of mother and wife. She was a cherished mother to her two sons, Mike and Jason, who were the light of her life, and a loving devoted wife to her husband, Mark.

Jessica found joy in life's simple moments, whether watching horror movies with Mike, cuddling with Jason, or spending time with her cherished cat, Carl. She loved true crime documentaries and had a wonderfully dark, quick-witted sense of humor that could bring laughter to even the most unexpected moments. Beneath her sharp wit was an incredibly kind and compassionate heart. She was a fiercely loyal friend, a woman of faith, and someone who left a lasting impression through her warmth, authenticity, and unwavering loyalty to those she loved.

To know Jessica was to love Jessica. She had a way of making even the most ordinary moments meaningful, leaving behind countless stories and memories that will be treasured for a lifetime. Though her time here was far too short, the mark she left on the lives of those around her will never fade. She will be missed beyond words.

It is difficult to understand why someone so deeply loved had to leave this world so soon. Her absence leaves an emptiness that feels profoundly unfair, and no amount of time could ever have been enough with Jessica. Yet, even amid such sorrow, there is comfort in knowing that she has been welcomed into the loving arms of our Heavenly Father. She now rests in His eternal peace, surrounded by a love greater than we could ever comprehend. Though saying goodbye feels impossible, God's promise of everlasting life offers assurance that, through Jesus Christ, this separation is only temporary. Until that glorious reunion, Jessica will forever be held in the hearts of her family, friends, and all whose lives she touched.

Jessica is survived by her husband, Mark Damm; her two sons, Mike and Jason Damm; her mother, Patricia Fontenot; and her beloved cat, Carl.

A memorial service celebrating Jessica's life will be held at 11:00 AM on November 14th, 2026, at Sneads Ferry Community Church of God, with Pastor Steve Allen officiating.
