Condolences for the family of “Jesse Wallace”
Our deepest sympathy on the passing of Uncle Jesse.
You will be in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
Ronald, Barbara Ballen and Family
Mr Wallace was a great man, and he still is, he’s just in a new glorious home. I’ve been a friend of the family for over 20yrs and each time I came over to see Michele, or at a family function he would always come over and say hi, and ask how I was doing. I’ll miss not seeing him when I go over. He will be missed by everyone that knew him, and his sense of humor.
My prayers go out to the whole family, I pray that God above will give you strength and comfort through this difficult time, and give you his peace!!
I love you all!
You Brother’s had Yellow vehicles on Lock. Always remembered. Rest Well
I send my condolences to my cousins. R. I. H. Uncle Jessie
