Jesse was a childhood, adolescent, and adult friend.  An example of "a good man" worth emulating.  Not nearly enough contact in more recent years, but always aware of his presence and good works down in east Texas.  My admiration for his accomplishments, and a life well-lived !  And prayers and meditations for the well-being of his kin.

Known Jesse since grade school.  He was the proverbial "good man" in every sense :  Friendly, reliable, trustworthy, dedicated, intelligent, caring, loyal, and courageous.... Traits rarely found collectively in one person.  May the Supreme Architect of the Universe comfort and keep you.

Jesse, My Friend, My Mentor, My Fellow Firefighter.  I will always cherish the times spent at Station 3 and especially the time we spent on the baseball field. May #15 Live Forever.  Your friend  David Slape Jr.  Dios Te Vendiga

Jesse was on of the best! He loved his Family and Friends! He gave his all in everything he did! The years he spent in Amvets was on account of his Mom, Bonnie knowing Chuck and Denise Hutchings, Bonnie wanted him to join to help out the cause of helping Veterans. Jesse joined, and served in many capacities, he mostly was the Department Commander for Texas in 2019-2020. Amvets will miss Jesse and heart to give to help Veterans and their Families. 
I know he enjoyed his Family, Friends, serving in the Fire Department, playing ball, traveling with Family, serving on the Honor Guard for DFR, serving on the Patriot Guard, and many other things too many to list. Jesse always had something going on to help others or benefit Veterans. On 9-11 every year, folks gathered at his home to participate in remembering the 343 Firefighters who died on 9-11-2001. Recently they remembered the 20th Anniversary of 9-11, as always they read the name of each fireman who died , and rang the bell to remember them. This was a big thing for Jesse and those knew took part in it every year, I hope in memory of Jesse this continues yearly. I will miss Jesse a lot, but he now with Jesus, Buster, Bonnie, Ronnie, Don, his other Family and Friends. Well Done Thy Faithful Servant and Child of God,  rest in peace! My love and  prayers are extended to the  Family during this time! The picture included is of the late Chuck Hutchings, and Jesse Bean.

 My dad was the most special man I will ever know. It’s very hard to except that he has passed away. As I think about all of the experiences he had and shared with us through our lives I know  how unique,  talented,   thoughful and giving he was.  What an extraordinary man!   He was a passionate, smart and strong man.  He loved us more than anyone and  it is hard to except that I cannot call him or see him again.   We are so blessed to have had him and I know he is with Jesus and we can still talk to him. My daughters are hurting, missing him  and we are trying to  turn our grief into celebration for him.  We have sat and cried and then laughed talking about him and the funny things he did  and I know he is laughing with us. I  Love him dearly and I am so thankful to have had him and will miss him every day.  The endless memories of him will be in my heart forever and  I pray for comfort as I  continuously think of him.  We have lost the most wonderful man.  I know he is a special angel and still watching over us.  I am so very proud of him! I love you Daddy!

I feel very fortunate to have known Jesse Bean both as a friend and as a teammate in the Men's Senior Baseball League. It was a pleasure playing for Jesse and against him.

Jesse's service to his country as a Marine and to the city of Dallas as  a fire fighter,  speaks to his character, his devotion to duty and his willingness to serve those in need.

I served with Jesse in the Marine Corp and we met overseas in the Pacific.We hit it off right away as he had a  magnetic personality and just a wonderful man.
    We talked a lot about families,sports,and women.I always remembered how he loved his Father Buster and Mother Bonnie.
      I will always remember how good he was in sports.We had a football game with some army rivals and it was a bloody event and I had never seew anyone throw a football so hard with accuracy.I had the bruised arms from catching them to prove it.This man could have played any sport he chose.
      We had a few bouts of saki nights and fun.I grew to love this Marine and Brother.
        We lost contact but thanks to Facebook I found him after 50 years and we had a chance to once again be together in California for a visit.It was magical and seemed like nothing had changed.I meet his wonderful wife Dannie with my wife Cherrie.We talked and texted many times after this and I am so blessed to have known and loved this Man,Patriot,and Marine Brother.I am sure he is smiling in heaven as he hears enter and rest your serve is over.Well Done faithful Servant.

Back in the late 80s and early 90s Jesse  Would go to the senior World Series baseball with a team out of Dallas. And every year it always right around Halloween. Jesse myself Randy Hiam and Rich Hyduke would all dress up in costume and go visit the Children in the local hospitals Phoenix and Scottsdale.The kids loved Jesse dressed  as Batman and Jesse loved the kids you could see it in his eyes. It was always the first thing Jesse wanted to do, you could tell it was as good for him as it was the kids. Jesse was a good good man and will be sorely missed by all those who knew I loved him. I am as sure as can be that my son Troy is now showing Jesse around Heaven !!!

Last night, on the DFD retirement website, I read where Jesse had just past away a few days prior.   I still can't believe it.  The memories I have of he and I participating in so many fun activities within the Dallas Fire Department are some of the best of my life.  We both worked together in the Training Division for several years.  He was such a positive personality and loved his work within the community representing DFD!  He, Bobby Galloway, Alcie Jackson, Paul Michael Freeman, Gary Taylor, and I made many memories playing on various DFD sports teams.  We, collectively, had the times of our lives!  I will miss Jesse greatly and offer prayers to his family.
