  5. Sad news, and as Don said Jessie was a beautiful woman, a television personality and her talents went much further than that, her mechanical & fabrication ability's would put many of us to shame, a tragic loss and my heart goes out to her family and adoring fans. HRP

    Wow. Looks like she died living her dream. I really respect people who do that. My condolences to her family. RIP.
     
  7. What a great personality she was! I saw her on quite a few TV car shows. She was one of the few that actually knew what she was talking about. She will be missed...

    So very, very sad. She will be missed by so many friends. The North American Eagle hails from around this part of the world and has for years. I personally had a tour of it once years ago here in Auburn when the team was looking for money. I assume it will be a sad ending for the team.
    Gods speed Jessi, the entire world of cars in every field will miss you.

    Had no idea who she was until I saw the pic. She was on a lot of car tv shows
    "...Combs was on television frequently, appearing on Overhaulin’, All Girls Garage, and even served as a host of Mythbusters..."

  15. Very sorry for her loss. She was the real deal and fearless.

    Never thought that 104 idea was a good one. :(

    knocks the wind out your sails a bit when you hear of a loss like this of a person that you did not truly know - but, kept an eye on her projects and the ones that she helped others with - there will not be anyone exactly like her - but, hopefully she has inspired others to always shoot for the stars - sincere sympathy goes out to her Family and closest friends and fans

    What passion she had for so many things. That passion was, I'm sure, passed on to many people. What an outstanding individual.
    Heartfelt condolences to all of her family and friends.

    While her jet ride had wheels and not wings, I thought this apt. A favorite poem made familiar to many by Ronald Reagan after the Challenger explosion claimed the lives of our astronauts.

    High Flight
    Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth,
    And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
    Sunward I’ve climbed and joined the tumbling mirth
    Of sun-split clouds — and done a hundred things
    You have not dreamed of — wheeled and soared and swung
    High in the sunlit silence. Hov’ring there
    I’ve chased the shouting wind along and flung
    My eager craft through footless halls of air.
    Up, up the long delirious burning blue
    I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace,
    Where never lark, or even eagle, flew;
    And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod
    The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
    Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

    Her gender did not limit her in any way and because of That, she was and will continue to be an example of what you can do if you refuse to say Can't! Forever an Inspiration, No Limits! Prayers and Condolences to Her Family, Friends and Team.
