Jesus "Jesse" Beltran was born on October 23, 1985, in Santa Barbara, California. He served in the United States Marine Corps from 2005 to 2011. His military journey took him to some of the most challenging corners of the world, with three courageous tours in Iraq, where he earned countless accolades for his fearless leadership and valor. His devotion to his country never wavered, and he became a beacon of inspiration to everyone fortunate enough to cross his path.

Jesse truly embodied living life to the fullest. Every moment was an adventure he seized with both hands. He poured his heart into everything he did—working hard and playing even harder. The roar of a motorcycle engine, the thrill of shooting, and the challenge of jiu-jitsu were his passions, his heartbeat. But it didn't stop there. Jesse found joy in the wildness of nature, in chasing the perfect shot through his camera lens, and in the endless energy of his dogs. Above all, it was his time with family and friends that filled his soul with warmth, laughter, and unforgettable memories.

Above all else, Jesse's pride and joy were his children, Bodhi and Jayleen. The love he had for his son was truly unmatched, and the love he had for his daughter was equally boundless. Jesse's legacy lives on through his children and his loved ones, who will remember him for the man he was.

Jesus Beltran will be missed, and if you were lucky enough to know him, you know how much of an impact he made on all of our lives. We are all lucky to know that Jesse is smiling and watching over us.

Jesus is survived by his fiancée: Jenna; children: Bodhi and Jayleen; father: Joseph (Martha); mother: Maria (Carlos); siblings: Monique (Hector), Alissa, Monica, CJ, and Johnny; nieces and nephews: Alexis (Matthew), Jacob, and Efren, along with extended family.

Services will be held at Starbuck-Lind Mortuary in Lompoc on Friday, April 4, 2025, at 10:00 a.m.
