Jessi, siempre te voy a llevar en el corazon.
Y siempre recordare cada momento que isiste divertido y agradable a mi y a mi hijo.
El recuerdo de un sentimiento puede durar una vida, y yo no voy a olvidarte.
Es una pena, pero ahora está en un lugar mejor. ..Descansa en paz jessi ochoa…
I’m So Sorry for Your Loss. I Traveled with Jesse in the 80s in Engineering every so often for Boise Cascade. He was Very Proud of his Family. He was a Good Friend and a Good Man. God Bless Jesse and His Family.
