It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of our dear friend and cherished member of the CCRAN community, Jessica Dasler. 💙
Jessica was an extraordinary human being — a devoted mom and wife, a fierce advocate, a trusted cancer coach and a valued member of CCRAN’s Young Adult Patient Advisory Council. To those who had the privilege of knowing her, she was also a shining beacon of light, hope and strength.
Throughout her journey with colore**al cancer, Jessica chose to use her voice and her experiences to help others. She spoke openly and courageously, advocated passionately for patients and offered understanding and support to people navigating some of the most difficult moments of their lives. As a cancer coach, she gave others something incredibly meaningful: the comfort of knowing they were not alone.
Jessica’s impact on CCRAN and the broader colore**al cancer community cannot be measured simply by the work she did. It lives in the people she supported, the conversations she helped change and the many lives she touched simply by being herself — warm, generous, determined and full of heart.
We feel incredibly fortunate that Jessica trusted CCRAN to be part of her journey and that we had the privilege of learning from her, advocating alongside her and witnessing the remarkable difference she made.
Above all, Jessica loved deeply. Our hearts are with her husband, her beloved daughter, her family and friends, and everyone who loved her.
Jessica, you gave so much of yourself to this community, even while carrying more than anyone should have had to carry. Your voice mattered. Your life mattered. And the light you brought into this world will remain with us.
You will be deeply, deeply missed. 💙
With love, always,
Your CCRAN family
