My beloved late husband Harry and I lived next door to Jesse & Mary from 1999 to 2013. Wonderful couple and neighbors- - Jesse taught our son to make the best smoked venison sausage. I have such found memories. Prayers and thoughts go out to their children.

uncle Jesse you will be missed but you have gone to heaven to finish the work God has planned for you and to be with Aunt Mary Rose nothing can be more precious than the love for each other you two shared. May the rest of your family heal from your departure but the memories and love will always fill everyone's heart and soul. God Bless
