Jessica M. Gratz

Jessica M. Gratz, age 43 of Boscobel and formerly of Nevada, passed away after a brief illness on Thursday, March 20, 2025. She was born on June 1, 1981, daughter of Donna Hill and William Arnold. Jessica grew up in Nevada and later moved to Boscobel, WI to be closer to family. In her spare time, Jessica found joy in baking sourdough bread, filling her home with an unforgettable, comforting aroma. She had recently taken up crocheting, eager to master the craft. Jessica adored her two beloved cats, Stimpy and Stinker, who brought her endless companionship. She was preparing to return to school, always striving for growth and new opportunities. Her passion for beauty—makeup, nails, and skincare was a reflection of her creativity and love for self-expression. Above all, Jessica cherished her family, holding them close to her heart. She will be remembered as a devoted mother and wonderful daughter and sister by her family.
