On December 1, 1979, Terry and Judy DeYoung celebrated the birth of their beautiful baby girl at St. Francis Hospital in Shakopee. Jessica was one of three children and loved growing up in the Prior Lake area with her brother, Matthew, and sister, Deanna. When Jessica was just a girl, her father passed away. This was a terrible loss for the whole family, and Jessica missed her father deeply. When her mom remarried Chris Fox, Jessica got a second father and siblings, Elisha and Caleb.
As a young woman, Jessica fell in love with and married Troy Langsdorf. They were blessed with two wonderful children, Jasmine and Taylor. Although Jessica and Troy eventually went their separate ways, they worked hard to be the best parents to Jasmine and Taylor.
Jessica was a beautiful woman, but she had many trials in her life. She struggled with addiction and medical issues for many years, but wasn’t able to make the changes she so desperately wanted to. Her family is now left to carry on her legacy. She will always be remembered for her sweet tooth, beautiful poetry, and her bright smile.
She will be deeply missed by her children, Jasmine Anna Rose Langsdorf, Taylor Alvin Joseph Langsdorf; former husband, Troy Langsdorf; boyfriend, John Cooper; mother, Judy (Rimnac) Fox; second father, Chris Fox; siblings, Mathew (Jenni) DeYoung, Elisha (Richard) Sanders, Deanna (Justin Grecco) DeYoung and Caleb Fox; grandparents, Larry & Joanne DeYoung, Pat Camplbell; aunts, Shari (Steve) Kuefler, Dawn DeYoung, Stephanie (Mike) Borst, Susan (Robert) Revier, Jan (Norm) Kraus, Carrie (Don) Pearson; uncles, Stephen Rimnac and Brad Fox; many loving cousins, nieces and nephews.
