To Cindy and family.......

There is a sacredness in tears,
They are not the mask of weakness, but of power,
and they are messengers of overwhelming grief and of unspeakable love.

Know you are in my thoughts and prayers, Love, Bonnie

I have such great memories about Jess. Jess has been such a great friend to me and my family. He has been such a wonderful neighbor to my grandparents, my uncle and to my parents. He has always been willing to give a helping hand whenever needed. I have so many fond memories of the fishing trips we have been on together. I will miss Jess deeply. Rest in peace Jess. My heart goes out to Betty, Vicki and the rest of the Walters family. My thoughts are with you always.

I have such wonderful and fond memories of Jess. I met him at the beginning of my 5th grade year, when Vicki moved to EG and we became friends. Jess always had a smile on his face and was such a caring person. I thought Vicki had the coolest parents ever. Jess will always have a special place in my heart, my dad away from home. I feel blessed to have known and to have had Jess in my life. I know he is in heaven, finally fishing again and feeling no pain or suffering! I will miss you Jess but I hope I will be blessed to see you again when my time comes, and I'll be able to hear about all your BEST fish stories! My heart and prayers go out to Betty, Vicki and all of the Walters family and friends!

I have fond memories growing up with the Walters family...always fun and entertaining. Jess always seemed to have just as much fun as we were having as kids. My heart goes out to you...keep the memories forever.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories as you celebrate a life will lived. Cindy and I became friends in the 4th grade, that's when our familys met and became good friends. I have great memories of our camping trips, riding motorcycles and water sking. I remember one of our camping vacations Jess's boat broke down so he went and bought a brand new boat, that's the kind of guy he was. Our family will forever cherish these memories (Fred, Elaine, Lorraine & Randy)

You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Our prayers and thoughts are with Betty and the Walters family. Jess was one of the special people we always hear about. We were blessed to have known him and have him in our life. He's fishing in the greatest waters of all now. We'll miss you Jess. Bill & Sheila Butler
