Mr J, Cathy and I are saddened that you have passed on. You became a very special part of our lives by knowing you. You showed everyone that being strong willed will keep you going regardless of the situation. We shared a lot in common, both of us are retired from the military and the love of motorcycles. God Bless you Jesse, you will be missed more than you will ever know. Bobby and Cathy Byrum
