Life story

Jesse is survived by her children: Marianne (Brian) and 2 children (Vanessa and Madison); eldest son, Jeffery (hazel) and 2 children (Colin and Elodie); Joseph (Anne) and 2 children (Ryan and Josiah); and eldest daughter Jennifer (Alan) and 2 children (Andrew and Addie). She is also survived by her siblings, Amy, Yolly (Bill), and Sonney (Fides). She is resting with her mother Demetria Edward's and her father.

She was retired from Head Start of 16 years where she was a school nurse and attended to the many medical needs of young students. She enjoyed going to the movies, car rides, shopping, dancing, and spoiling her children whenever she could.

Though her life was cut short due to illness, she lived as much as she could and will be greatly missed.

The family would like to give a special thanks to Jesse's last nursing aide, Akilah; who was by her side throughout her final years.
