I am so sad to learn of Jesse’s passing. I was his art teacher in high school, and I remember him well. I just want you, his family and friends, to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Bob, Belinda, and Ray, My heart is with you all at this difficult time in your lives. I know you loved Jesse very much. I always enjoyed being around Jesse. He was a good one to have in the youth group. He always had a smile and a good conversation when I would run into him around town. I miss him and know you do even more so. Rest assured he is resting with Jesus now and at sweet peace. Please know that I love you all and am praying for you earnestly at this time. God’s grace, peace, and mercy is what I ask for you at this time. Love you,
Mary Kellum
