IIRC Jess was given a MBB championship ring that year because the athletic dept didn't have the money to give him an individual ring for his golf championship. It wasn't until recently that our AD made sure Jess got the ring he earned 52 years ago. Pretty cool deal. (Correct me if I got something wrong, Zeeb)
Condolences to you, his family and friends. I'm sure he is playing some of the nicest courses Heaven has to offer.
