Memorial Text:

"In Memory of Jesse Messick October 4, 1929-April 28, 1988. An outstanding citizen of Murfreesboro and Rutherford county whose vision and love for our county heritage and its music led him to conceive and organize the first Uncle Dave Macon Days festival in July of 1977. It was a tremendous success! So much so that in July of every year since, thousands of visitors are welcomed to our community as they gather to enjoy and participate in this nationally recognized celebration. Dedicated by the people of our community in July 2006."
