Life story

Jesse Daniel Sistrunk was born on May 22nd, 2000 and he was the token son of Shane and Meri Sistrunk, and the token sibling of his sister, Sheila. While he only had one sister, he was blessed with many boy cousins who loved and treated him like a brother. From the time he came into this world, to the time he left it- he made an impact on everyone he encountered.

Jesse attended Jefferson Elementary School, Irving Middle School, and was registered to attend Pocatello High School. During this time, he met his lifelong best friends- Tyson Emery and Kayden Wilcox.

Jesse was the life of every party. He lived a life full of adventure and loved camping, skateboarding, long boarding, playing video games, and his greatest passion- riding dirt bikes!

Jesse tragically passed away on his 14th birthday- May 22nd, 2014- doing what he loved most (dirt bike riding)! He was simply too perfect for this world.

Jesse is survived by his parents Shane and Meri Sistrunk, sister Sheila (Jessy) King, grandparents Fred & Caryn Sistrunk, nieces Paisley & Maiya King, nephew Daniel King, and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. All of whom, will miss him forever.
