To Jessie's family,
I was blessed to work with Jessie for several years. She was awesome and I loved her and honored her. I was so happy when she retired so that she could rest and hopefully enjoy herself. Jessie taught me so much and helped me make it as a teacher. I am so grateful to have known her. I was several states away when I learned of her death. My condolescences to you all.

To Jessie's family, I was sadden to hear of Jessie's passing. It has been a while since I have seen her but always asked about her. I have such fond memories of our days at Virginia Randolph. Peace and blessings to the family and I know that Jessie is smiling down on us.
