I don't know your family but I saw the video of Jesse's Father. I was touched by both of the videos. May your family find the peace and strength needed to go on without Jesse. I am so sorry for your loss. No one can ease your pain but I hope not a day goes by that Jesse's name isn't brought up for some odd or funny reason, I find it hurts but it helps make you feel blessed to know such a loved person. May God bless your family and keep them safe and find the way to heal from your loss.

Just happened to watch the Video of Jesse's Father and decided to come here. I have never heard of Jesse, but decided to send a message anyway. I hope the Family will get peace through this tragedy. Losing a Loved one is hard, I know. But know, anyone that passes away is tough of Families. May the LORD give peace to his entire Family. Today, Jesse is with ALL those that have gone before Us. May the LORD bless and KEEP you ALL safe. For the Bible says, "To be absent from the Body is to be Present with the LORD". May these WORDS give comfort to ALL those reading this. God bless, to ALL!! Sandra Tuttle Family!!

I never knew Jesse, but now I won't forget his name or his face or the obvious love and sorrow of his dad. I'm glad you got to see his video. I can only imagine that every single image and sound of Jesse is more precious than anything else on earth. As a mom, I would never want to know the pain of losing a child and I am so sorry that you lost yours. There's no words to ease pain like that but Jesse was clearly blessed with love. God Bless.

Lisa Stegemann

February 1, 2012

It's hard to understand how someone so young, full of talent, and by all accounts just a terrific person can go so early in life. Inasmuch as its so hard, we have to keep in mind that there is a reason that he was taken, and while we may never understand that reason, that he will still be with you in your hearts, in your mind and in your memories, and that he will be around whether you feel a breese and think of him or when you feel the presence of an angel. Jesse was taken too soon, but be comforted bt the fact that he is with God now. Rest in peace, Jesse Berlin.
