Jessepalooza

On February 3, 2010 my best friend's daughters' brother Jesse died from complications of type 1 diabetes.  He was only 13 years old.  There are no words to describe the incredible sadness his passing has had on all of his family and friends.  In honor of Jesse, this Saturday at the Capital Brewery, will be the first ever "Jessepalooza."

Jesse's mom Michelle explained her motivation for Jessepalooza was threefold.  "First, we wanted to honor Jesse the way he would want to be honored which is through music and people laughing and having a great time remembering him. Second, to raise money to find a cure for this hideous disease and third, to have a way for his friends and family to get together and remember him each year.”

I truly believe this will be a wonderful day and such a great way to celebrate the life of Jesse.  Jessepalooza runs from 12pm to 9pm this Saturday at the Capital Brewery in Middleton, WI.  Tickets are $10 in advance or $15 at the door.  There will be plenty of music, plenty of refreshments, and lots of laughs.  Hope to see you there.
