When he retired from his work through the Pipefitters Local No. 57, he was then able to spend his time doing what he loved to do, gardening and yardwork.

He later went to work as a pipefitter, and this was his vocation for 30 years. Jesse was a hard worker and was skilled at doing many things: carpenter work, masonry, and could fix anything that needed fixing. He was a devoted member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and fulfilled his church callings diligently. He is survived by his wife Phyllis and his children: Terry, Kenneth (Judy) and Kim (LuAnn) Hogge and Ellen (Wally) Vlasick, Laurie (Edward) Hall, Deena (Evan) Penrod and Janet Wilson. He has 20 grandchildren and many great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his six siblings. He will be missed by his wife of 68 years, his children and grandchildren.
