Jesse Leo was born in Logan, Utah where the Jesse Leo Cardon Sr. family resettled after the family fled the Mexican Revolution.  Francis and Jesse grew homesick for the Colonies, their friends and home.  As soon as it became safe to return, the family traveled back to Dublan.

"Jesse Jr. was playing basketball in the old gym:  he was perspiring from ;laying when he jumped on the running board of the car to ride home.  There was a cool breeze and from this exposure Jesse took diphtheria and in two weeks he died, on February 9, 1928."  Jesse was 14 years old.

Franklin Moses (Frank) "was a handsome child with dimples and blue eyes ... was struck down early in life by a cruel freak accident.  A gun, which fell from the top of a trunk, discharged a bullet that hit the little fellow in the head, killing him instantly."  Frank was six years old.

For over 81 years these two sons have had only a simple concrete marker written with a nail in the wet concrete to mark their grave.  The Jesse Leo Cardon  family raised the funds to have new headstones marking the resting place of two of their brothers.

The two sons died very young in life and had little chance to create an extended life history.  Both Jesse and Frank were sealed to their parents in the Logan Temple.
