Dear Marguerite and Girls, I'm not quite sure how to put into words. the pain I feel in my heart for all of you. Any kind of "I'm sorry" feels as empty as the hole these last few months/years, has put into our lives. All I know I can say is I love all of you very much. I'm so proud to be part of your family. A family that is so strong, that can see each other through such tribulations. I had alot of respect for Jesse. He was a very strong man, in fact I don't think God creates such men anymore. I thank God that my sister in law was loved by such a man because you my dear deserve nothing but the best. Even though in my mind he was taken to soon. I still thank God you were given the love of a man that will last a life time for you. I'm always here for you. So please call me. You are not alone we all love you sooo much. In closing I just want to say my prays and thoughts are always with you. Love your sister in law, Colleen

I owe my brother Jesse more than i can express with any words but i'll try my damnest, first of all he taught me the trade of masonry which i've practiced my whole life for that i'll be eternally grateful. Secondly but by far more importantly he treated my sister Marguerite like the queen she is. He never laid a hand on her and God help the person who even thought of hurting her in any way. He also treated my nieces not only like his own he never made them uncomfortable about recognizing their own father. He taught me valuable lessons about living a responsible life and trying to live my lifelike the man he knew i could be i loved him,and i'll miss him terribly i know he's having a perfect martini right now with my Mom and Dad and laughing about all the good times. Love always, to my older brother. Danny

To Jesse's family, my sincere condolences.I don't know any of you but Jesse and I did business together years ago and he was a very talented mason and a very nice man to do business with and to just have a few laughs with.

Marguerite and Girls, I am sitting here knowing that our Jessums is gone and can hardly believe it, I feel a great loss w/out him , he was my everything ,he made me feel safe when I did'nt feel safe, he made me happy when I was sad ,he infuriated me too , ( and he loved every minute of it!!) He was my friend ,my confidant, my banker, my "sister( cause I always felt like he was one of the "girls" )and also my other husband, he was someone I could always depend on no matter what and I feel so empty without him..My God Jess , I am gonna miss you!!!! To Mags and the girls , I will be with you every step of the way, Thank you God for letting him stay with us a little while longer so he could help us all get through the loss of Corey.
