Jesse B. Jenson Memorial Fund
Donation protected
I am helping spread the word about this man, Jesse B. Jenson - my American Hero. From as early on as 14 years of age, Jesse was dedicated to protecting and serving his country and community.
I am hoping to raise funds to help his family pay for the funeral services Jesse deserves.
