"Jesse is/was more amazing than even he realized. Accomplished more in life then he originally ever thought he could or deserved. LOVED his family more than anything or anyone and fought to keep us happy. We saw the world."
From his son, Braedon:
"I just can't describe him. He was perfect. I love him so fucking much. I miss him. I looked up to him, he's who I wanted to be. He loved my mother so much you couldn't understand."
