Jesse was my brother, my favorite. He loved to work on cars, he had a 1955 Chevy that he rebuilt and raced at the US 30 drag strip in Oswego, Il, or did wheelie races in Elgin, Il. He took me with him where ever he went, even on dates, and he let me help him work on the car. Then I lost him the day after my 9th birthday. He was the best and I miss every day.
