Dedicated to Jesse's Dad...
The pain I see you in breaks my heart in two,
Yet I know it's nothing like the pain you're going through.
You talk of a man good and strong,
Now you say without him you don't want to carry on.
He taught you sports and how to have fun,
You live now without the warmth of the sun.
You long to feel his hand pat you on the back,
Showing you he was proud of the courage you never lacked.
He was always there for you whenever you called out his name,
But now that he's gone things will never be the same.
At first you cried out "Dad how could you leave me like this",
To have just one more chance now is your only wish.
You regret that you never got a chance to say goodbye,
You think others believe you didn't love him because you couldn't cry.
You say nothing seems to matter, what's the point in caring,
You think that no one sees that you're soul is tearing.
The hell you're going through, I can't take away,
But I hope you know that I am here to stay.
I can never take his place, and I would never try,
I'm here to listen when you say, "Dad why'd you have to die."

Easter of '99
This page is dedicated to Jesse and his dad. Christmas Eve of 1998 Jesse's father passed away and left behind many people who miss him a lot. I never knew the man myself, but I feel the loss of him through his son. Those lives who he touched will never be the same; they were touched by someone truely special and will always be richer for it. Jesse I'll always be here for you to lean on, and I know you can make it through this, I believe in you. I love you Jesse.
The song playing is One Sweet Day by Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men.
people have remembered the life of a wonderful man.
