Jessica McCranie

Office Manager

Jessica is a native Texas Girl! She was born and raised in McKinney, Texas.  Jessica relocated and joined the Moore Funeral & Cremation team fall of 2019; she has been in the funeral business over nine years. Jessica began her mission with Turrentine-Jackson-Morrow Funeral Home in McKinney. There she learned the value of professional funeral etiquette; and when you embrace this profession it becomes a ministry, not a job.

Jessica provides office management and funeral directors assistance to allow families a professional and sincere experience with us. In this business, we have “one” chance to make it right for the family.  Therefore, she uses her personal experiences of loss to assist each family.

She looks forward to becoming a part of the Moore community as she was in McKinney by serving the McKinney Education Foundation, McKinney Chamber, McKinney ISD committees, LULAC and other community groups and events.

Jessica enjoys “the game” whether it be watching her nephew-in-law Mr. O play baseball, her son umpiring professionally or her daughter-in-law playing professionally and coaching, you can always find her at the field.
