Jesse lived in 28 years what most couldn't...He was Happy being himself, humble when it came to his achievements and was determined to be part of a Movement that gave hope to sick and struggling, and that's His Legacy. A tragic day should not cloud Jesse Living His Dreams and Helping Others....Like A Fox Jep....1-4-3
