Jesse Betterton Obituary

Jesse Betterton, 26, of Bartlesville, Oklahoma passed away suddenly on Tuesday morning, September 25th, 2018.
Jesse was born on January 7th, 1992 in Ponca City, Oklahoma.
Jesse was an amazing, loving, and devoted father and husband. He was a good son, loyal brother, cool uncle, great friend and special person that made an imprint on our world. He left us with great riches found in his children, Sophia, Miley, and Jeremy. His children were the light in his life. Sophia, Miley, and Jeremy will continue to bear fruit of his life. Jesse will be remembered for his patience and kindness.
Jesse enjoyed playing sports, listening to music, and pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Network Security. His ultimate goal was to achieve his Master's degree and create an amazing life for his family.
We are full of sorrow for our loss, but encouraged by the legacy of his life, his children and the future of his family. We are thankful to see his best attributes in each of his children and we will long for his companionship as the memories remain with us. Jesse was kind, gentle, loyal, caring and talented. We grant our brother God's peace and know his spirit is well, with our gift to love and support one another in our loss on this earth.
Survivors include his three children, Sophia, Miley, and Jeremy; his mother, Cecilia Betterton; his father, Dennis Betterton; his brother, Jeremy; his grandmother, Jeanette Betterton; and his wife, Rebecca Betterton.
A visitation will be held from 1:30 PM – 2:00 PM followed by a Memorial service from 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM on Saturday September 29th, 2018 at the Adams Boulevard Church of Christ located at 3700 SE Adams Blvd, Bartlesville, OK 74006.
