JesseMasterpool.com Update

We wanted to take a second and update everyone on a few things. First and foremost, keep on praying! The Masterpool family without a doubt feels your prayers and support. Additionally, keep checking out www.jessemasterpool.com for the latest news and information regarding Jesse. We are updating the site daily as the family releases information.

A benefit fund has been created in honor of Jesse Masterpool.  For those who are able and would like to make a donation there will be a dedicated Pay Pal link available (www.jessemasterpool.com).  Funds will be used to assist the Masterpool family with costs surrounding his injury.  No amount is too small and we thank you for your participation.  If you would like to give a check you may do so by walking in to any Wells Fargo branch and reference the "Jesse Masterpool Benefit Fund." 

We also just received some Jesse Masterpool number plate stickers. We will be shipping out stickers as supplies last. Check out the website for further details.

We are currently working on getting t-shirts and wrist bands as another way for people to show their support for Jesse. We will be placing these items on Jesse's site as they become available, so check back often.

If you would like to send a card or well wishes please use the online Group Card that we have set up.  After the signatures stop coming in we will print out the card and send it to the family.  http://www.groupcard.com/c/tFX4SxVTKR4

www.jessemasterpool.com is the official site of this effort and run by the people who are closest to the Masterpool family. Thank you for all of the support and prayers, they mean the world!

Prayers sent...

God bless you Jesse and the rest of the Masterpool family.

FYI: More mini plate decals are shipping Monday.
We are printing them now.

RIP little guy. Praying for his family.

Rest in peace Masterpool 956...

This news breaks my heart...I am praying for all of Jesse's family and friends.

Just saw RXonline's twitter post...

So so so so sad and sorry for their family and friends... I have no idea what he was like but I've thought about how horrible this must have been quite a bit over the last week...

Prayers and thoughts for their family...

RIP Jesse

Heart breaking. R.I.P. man.

So sorry to hear that. My heart and prayers go out to the family. R.I.P. Jesse

RIP Jesse, Godspeed. Condolences to the Masterpool family.

Family, be strong as he was. RIP.

wow i just read this about the kid and don't know what to say ...godspeed

I can't find anything official...I'll keep praying for the best...

Damnit!!!

I just got the new playground yesterday and there is a comment next to a photo of Jesse that was talking about his setbacks. And how he hoped 2010 was going to be setback free

Godspeed Jesse

I wish I had taken a picture of Jesse's face, the first time he had a HOT Krispy Kreeme doughnut. He said he had never heard of them before and I told him after we ate dinner I would take him (and my kids) for a treat. His face lit up like a spotlight after his first bite.

This really hits home for the Choate family. The Masterpools had Christmas dinner with us last year ('08) and all the kids had a fantastic time playing together. I wish I was able to post some cool pictures of my kids and the Masterpool boys just "hanging out" together but I am unable.

Godspeed Jesse.

RIP Jesse.. Statement from family.

03.21.10

Official Statement from the Masterpool Family:

Due to the injuries Jesse sustained, he passed away early Saturday morning.

We all feel you are now part of the family. We didn’t want anyone speaking for us in these letters and because of this we have not done the job that all of you wonderful people deserve. Jesse was extremely passionate, positive, and considerate of how his actions might affect other people. We felt he would not want to bring this news to the riders or the fans attending last night’s supercross race. He would want the riders to focus and ride their best and the fans to celebrate in their efforts.

One of Jesse’s favorite movies was “Remember the Titans”. He felt strongly enough to wear it on his butt patch; it was a part of him. Not just a movie, but like his own name.

The passion that brought such different people together dissolved old feelings between them – to see what they truly felt. Inside the soul, they were not different after all. As crazy as it may seem to Jesse and many riders, the butt patch is sacred. It is your name. It is you. It can’t be bought by a sponsor. It is a passionate symbol of who that rider is. Your passion, faith and love have brought us all together.

We all feel Jesse’s spirit; Jesse is now a part of all of us. Jesse brought us all together. We know what Jesse would want us to do.

God Bless

Love,
Jesse and the Masterpool Family

RIP

RIP Jesse!

Like so many who had the chance to compete with Jesse, we will carry you with us forever.

This sucks i'm getting flash backs of when Bradon was taken from us. Love to all

Godspeed Little buddy, praying for the family.

RIP. Great young man. MX is a dangerous sport and it's sad that something like this has to be the "worst case scenario" part of it.

RIP Jesse. Condolences to the Masterpoole family.

Its strange that someone whom I've never met or even knew of could put such a lump in my throat................. Its with a heavy heart that I say RIP Jesse.

Very sad, such a young kid. RIP.
