Jessika Leigh Baier (1988 - 2009)

Jessika died unexpectedly early this morning. Her death has caused an outpouring of grief from her friends and fans.

I first met Jessika when she auditioned for the Center Stage Jackson production of Little Women, which I was directing. What a life force! And could that girl sing! There wasn't a role that fit her then but I always hoped that we would work together sometime. Never someone who watched American Idol, I was glued to the set rooting for Jessika when she auditioned.

What a sad day this is. You can read the article about Jessika's fatal car crash by clicking here.
