Jessica Cae Pritchett, age 43, of Parker, Kansas, passed away on Thursday, June 26, 2025, at Overland Park Regional Medical Center after a year long battle with Cervical Cancer.
Jessica was born on August 30, 1981, in Kansas City, Missouri, to Robert Eldon and Paula Marie (Godfrey) Pritchett. She was raised in Parker, Kansas, where she attended school and was lovingly brought up by her mother and dad, Wayne Burk.
Jessica became a mother at a young age, welcoming her first son, Brody Scott, in 1999. She later gave birth to her daughter, Kiera Reanne, and her youngest son, Taydon Brae. Being a mother was one of Jessica’s greatest joys, and she poured her heart into raising her children.
Jessica was known for her vibrant spirit and her ability to make any gathering more joyful. She had a deep love for music, art, and drawing, and she brought creativity into all aspects of her life. A talented cook, her meals were always made with care and remembered fondly by those who shared them.
Over the years, Jessica worked as a bartender, cook, and house cleaner. No matter the job, she brought energy, humor, and kindness into the lives of those around her. Jessi struggled with mental health her entire life. Getting cancer on top of that felt like the final, bitter twist in a story already filled with too many battles.
Jessica was preceded in death by her father, Robert Pritchett.
She is survived by her children: Brody Stevenin, Kiera Stevenin, and Taydon Cornett; her significant other, Chad Snider; her parents, Paula and Jeff McGuire and Wayne Burk; her siblings: Ryan Burk, Kyle Burk, Caitlin Burk, and Jacquelyn Kirkland; and her beloved nieces and nephews: Wesley, Alice, Ari, Korbin, Marlo, Logan, and Evalynn. She also leaves behind many other family members and friends who will deeply miss her laughter, creativity, and generous heart.
Jessica’s vibrant personality and love for life will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.
Visitation will be 11-2pm Sunday July 6th, 2025 at the Eddy Birchard Chapel.
