Always welcomed everyone in with warm hands and a big smile. Jesse always showed up for his loved ones and pushed everyone to do good and great things. He brightened every room he walked in, was the life to every party and was the light in the dark. His silliness, laughter, and big-hearted spirit was unforgettable. Jesse was hard working, brilliant, selfless, caring, and most importantly full of love. Jesse and Erika welcomed endless pets into their warm home that he deeply loved.

Jesse loved having movie nights and family time, he enjoyed that more than anything. Jesse had hobbies that he really loved like drawing, painting, and doing home projects. Jesse got closer to God, never missed church, and always involved God In his home. He was becoming a better version of himself.
