of Walls, MS
October 24, 1967 - February 13, 2025
Jesse Burdell White, 57, of Walls, Mississippi, formerly of Earle, Arkansas, completed his final race by entering the gates of heaven in the early morning hours of February 13, 2025. He was surrounded by family when he gained his wings. Jesse was born on October 24, 1967 in Bartow, Florida to parents, Burdell and Margie Moss White.
Jesse graduated from Earle High School and held several jobs through the years in sales and management, as well as being a master mechanic. His nitpicky perfectionist ways allowed him to excel at these. He had a passion for vehicles of all kinds, especially if they were fast. He loved all things racing. Cars and racing was his favorite past time, but he would tell you that his greatest love and accomplishment was his family.
Left to cherish his memory is his wife, Stacey White; children, Derrick (Tiffany) White, Madison (Tyler) Fowler and Caleb White; grandchildren, Brianna, McKenzie and Makena White, Holden and Baby Fowler on the way; his mother, Margie Moss White; brother, Terry (Dianne) White and sisters, Nellie Hulen and Mary (Kenny) Blansett. Jesse is also survived by several nieces and nephews, as well as extended family, a lifetime of friends and his fur baby, Harley.
Preceding him in death was his father, Burdell White and grandparents, Jesse Burdell White and Louise Linville White Hill, James Moss and Nellie Moss Wilson.
Jesse's family and friends will forever cherish the memories of him and know when they gain their wings, to follow the burnout tracks he's left on the streets of gold. To have known and loved Jesse was a privilege, he will be missed beyond measure.
Jesse, it's only been a week since our last words to each other, I love you brother, love you sis, but it already seems like a lifetime. The pain and sorrow of losing you is heartbreaking and extremely difficult. Our only slight comfort is knowing you are pain free and with Daddy and Gramps. We will love you forever and keep you in our hearts until we see you again. I already miss you and will always love you. Your baby sister, Mouse.
Margie I am so sorry for your loss and I truly feel the pain and sadness that you are currently carrying. You and the family will surely be in my thoughts and prayers.
White Family,
We love ya'll and are praying for each of you. God bless!

I was sorry to hear about Jesse.
I have known him since you all moved to Crawfordsville in 1980.
Lots of childhood memories. Him, Nellie and Mary and I would ride our bikes, play baseball and get cokes from Mr. Howe's store.
Keeping you all in my prayers.
Thoughts and prayers to the family. It’s hard to lose a member of your family and keep going on with your life. Keep Jesse in your heart and your life and he will always be with you. Know that he is no longer suffering and with the lord. You now have another angel looking over you keeping you safe. Trust in the lord he knew it was time for Jesse to come home.
