Bonnie, I'm so sorry to hear about Jesse. I'm sure Jesse and my Dad are sharing stories in heaven. Jess was a man of great integrity and I will always have wonderful memories of Jesse at the horse barns, the airport, the Campus Restaurant and the parking lots at Beaver Stadium. I will keep you and the family in my prayers. God Bless you and give you peace. John

Jesse and family:
So sorry for the loss of your father/grandfather. He will always be remembered with a smile. Draft horse driving shows have not been the same since he hasn't been there to "direct the traffic" in the ring. I will never watch a driving competition without remembering him and his smile. You will all be in our thoughts and prayers.
