auctions and playing bingo. He loved taking his girls to the races when they
were young. He loved to cook. He was a diehard fan of the Buffalo Bills. Jesse had a great sense of humor and had a
few but very close friends. He showed
respect to everyone he met. He will be
sorely missed.

Kristy, and Holly; and grandfather to thirteen beautiful grandchildren. He is also survived by two sisters, Bonita
“Bonnie” (Ted) Mix and Lois (Ronald) Bennett; his beloved, Debbie George; and
several nieces and nephews.
In addition to his parents, Jesse was predeceased by a
brother, Al Leverett.
