I'm so sorry to hear about the death of Jesse. He was such a sweet, funny man and a good friend. I always enjoyed watching basketball games with him. He will be missed by many. Rest in peace, Jesse, and say hello to Albert!

Jesse was always great to talk to and a really good friend for many years. He would always ask me how my animals were and that means a lot.
There will be a missing piece on set from now on but Jesse will live forever in our hearts.

Jesse was one of the best friends I ever had, distance didn't stop the caring and love. He was the kindest soul, truly a sincere and beautiful person. Jesse made 18 hour days at work tolerable with his humor and conversation. He loved his crossword puzzle everyday with a cup of coffee in the cab of his truck. The world just got a little darker now that you are not in it. I love you Jesse, until we meet again my friend!
My sincere condolences to all the family, especially his...

In my unfortunately brief time knowing Jesse, he showed me so much kindness and thoughtfulness. The first time I met him - instead of letting me awkwardly wait alone for a drink at a gathering where I didn’t know many people - he kept me company and tried to make me smile. That was the kind of man he was. My thoughts and love are with his family, friends, and the many, many lives I know he touched.

Jesse, we spent so many hours on so many weird locations, on movie sets together. No matter what hour of the day or night, you were always so kind. I was always happy to see your name on the call sheet. Thanks so much for all you did to make this world a kinder place. I pray for your families huge loss. ❤
