Jessica L. Williams
February 14, 1982 – December 20, 2025
Mrs. Jessica Lynn Williams, age 43, of St. Augusta, MN, passed away on Saturday, December 20, 2025, at Quiet Oaks Hospice House. A Celebration of Jessica’s Life will be held on Friday, January 2, 2026, from 5:00-8:00pm at the Daniel Funeral Home, St. Cloud.
Jessica was born February 14, 1982, in Orange City, Iowa. She was the first child of Evan and Pam (Gengler) De Haan. She lived on a farm near Carnes and was a student of Maurice-Orange City/Floyd Valley. She graduated with the Class of 2000.
During her High School years, Jessica was employed at the Heritage House and Long-Term Care Facilities as a Certified Nurses’ Assistant. After graduation, Jessica attended Northwest Iowa Community College in Sheldon for nursing.
On July 6, 2001, she married her high School sweetheart, Jason Douglas Williams. Together they made their home in Sioux Center, Iowa; Littleton, Colorado; and finally settling in St. Augusta, Minnesota.
While her children were young, Jessica worked full-time as a Registered Nurse at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Denver, Colorado; while also pursuing her education to become a Nurse Practitioner specializing in Women’s Health, which is what led them to Minnesota.
Jessica loved to spend her free time reading and being creative through artwork and decorating her home. She had a sporty side, picking up Cross Fit with her husband and watching/coaching her son Carter’s baseball. She rooted endlessly for her sweetheart’s favorite team, the Denver Broncos.
Jessica will be deeply missed by her husband of over 24 years, Jason, of St. Augusta; three children, Connor Jason, Chloe Michele, and Carter Allen, all living at home; her parents, Evan and Pam of Alton, Iowa; brother, Christopher (Alisha) DeHaan of Lennox, South Dakota; brother, Anthony (Krystle) De Haan of Watertown, South Dakota; and many nieces and nephews.
Jessica was preceded to Heaven’s Glory by her infant brother, Quinn, and her mother-in-law, Kathy Williams.
The family would like to express a heart-felt Thank You to the staff at Quiet Oaks, Dr. Mundt and Kim at Minnesota Oncology, Centra Care Hospital in St. Cloud, and Mercy Hospital in Coon Rapids, and her Simplicity Health family.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be given to the family for a future designation.
A celebration of Jessica’s life will be held in Iowa at the Maurice Reformed Church in Maurice, Iowa on January 17, 2026 from 2:00-4:00.

Jason, Connor, Chloe, & Carter—
I was heartbroken to hear about the passing of Jessica. You guys have been on my mind these past few days as I’ve been trying to comprehend your loss and her passing, as well as the words to completely encapsulate my sadness with you. Jessica was an incredible person, and her kindness and love will always be remembered. I can’t imagine the pain you’re going through, but please know you’re not alone. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers, and I’m here for you whenever you need anything — even if it’s just someone to sit with in silence. I love you all incredibly—you will be in my prayers for many days, weeks, and months to come.
With my utmost deepest sympathy and love,
Luke Gonzales
To Jessica’s family, friends, and loved ones the Kramer family offers condolences and prayers. I have so many fond memories with her while living in Sioux Center. Jason, Jessica, and their two pug babies (before the real babies) practically lived with me. Jessica had a quiet strength and the biggest heart. She welcomed me into her family as well (many nights spent at her parents home, playing cards, sitting in the sunroom). We were a bunch of kids trying to figure it all out. I truly cherished her friendship and only regret loosing touch when they made the move to Minnesota. Her warm smile and laugh will be missed. I am blessed to have known her. I know she touched and changed so many lives.
Our thoughts and Prayers are with your Family. Jessica’s smile and happiness will be missed.
Pam, Even, Jason, and Family,
When I learned of Jess’s passing, my heart was flooded with so many cherished childhood memories of her. Those moments will be forever imprinted in my heart. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this difficult time and in the years ahead
