I just ran across Jess's obituary on 6/12/19. My condolences to the family. I knew Jess at ISU when we were freshmen and sophomores living in the same dorm and in several classes together. I also played football against Jess in high school as I graduated from Huntington in 1962. Our senior year we were beating HC 55-0 but the kid playing on the line across from me played harder and tougher as though his team was ahead. We got in a scuffle near the end of the game, and we both were nearly ejected from the game. After the game we shook hands and introduced ourselves. It looks like his hard work and toughness followed him throughout his life.
