I knew Jesse when he was with the RPD and he took me on my one and only flight in the helicopter. May he be flying with the angels now!

Connie & Shawn, God needed the BEST pilot ever to fly him around....he picked the right one. Jesse taught me to fly so I could get my pilot's license and he took away my fear of flight. I'll always remember and LAUGH about him being "Arnie Poo-Poo" in all our MANY mini-golf outings and they had to keep shutting down the ski-lift when we went skiing in W.Va. with yall 'cause he & Bob kept falling off of it! It was NEVER a dull moment when we were all together and I will cherish those memories even more now. I'll STILL laugh, not cry. Just keep "being Connie" rely on your faith and call me again, whenever you need to talk. Love ya both and Godspeed Jesse, you've earned those new wings!!!!! Donna Armstrong, Mechanicsville, VA

Connie and Shawn, We have never loved and enjoyed knowing anyone as much as we have you and your family. Our times together will always be a treasured memory for us. The first time we met Jesse, he made a "remark" about our Pom; we'll never forget the way he made us laugh and how much he enjoyed life. We know that you had true love for each other and Shawn; the first time Jesse saw Shawn, his eyes shined like stars and they were so full of love. We are sorry we cannot be with you at this very difficult time in yout life. We share your great loss; our prayers and thoughts are with you. Our loss is heaven's gain. May God carry you and Shawn through these difficult times.
