What a shock! We have many fond memories of Jesse as a good friend to my brother Scott and a great, helpful, hard working and very unselfish guy. In the little time I spent with him, he made an indelible impression as a very good man and someone that could be relied upon. I am sure there is a giant hole in the lives of his family, and in this difficult time, many of us are thinking of you. Jesse's legacy will live on in each of us. Sincerely – Roger Darnell & Family
Nora, John and Marie…thinking of you and your family at this time. Met Jessie when he moved to the area in 99. Always had a smile and a big hello to give whenever we saw him around town and at the hall. Your whole family is in our thoughts and prayers.
