Gregory Jesseman Obituary

Gregory "Greg" Harlan Jesseman, 66, of Lisbon, New Hampshire, passed away due to a cardiac event on Sunday, October 12th, 2025, at his home. He was born on January 28th, 1959, in Littleton, New Hampshire, to Wendell and Erline McBurney Jesseman. Greg spent most of his life in the North Country, where he cherished the quiet beauty of the area and the close bonds of family and friends. Greg was a literal mountain of a man - steady, strong, and extremely devoted to his family and community. He graduated from Lisbon Regional School, Class of 1977 and was the recipient of the Skimeister award in his senior year. He graduated from Berlin Tech. with a specialty in automotive.

Greg worked at New England Wire Technologies for over 43 years. During this time, he made countless contributions to the Maintenance & Facility team, serving in multiple roles including groundskeeper, maintenance supervisor, facilities manager, and leader of special facility projects. Greg was known for his dedication, hard work, and pride in everything he did.

Greg loved spending time with his family and friends, who meant the world to him. Greg enjoyed snowmobiling, ski racing, water skiing, fishing, hunting, and time spent with family and friends at the family camp on Partridge Lake. His nieces and nephews were a big part of his life. He was often found on the sidelines, cheering, pacing, or coaching. He spent many nights and hours in the car, driving to games or practices to support his nieces and nephews. Greg was the definition of loyal. He seldom missed a game, event, or moment in the lives of his nieces and nephews - no matter the season, no matter the distance. No event was too small, and he was very proud of his family. His kindness, humor, and steady presence will be remembered and deeply missed by all who knew him. Whether you needed a ride, a wrench, or a reality check, Greg was already there. Known widely for his uncanny ability to fix anything - or at the very least tell you a better way it could be done - he was the quiet problem-solver whose word you could trust. Beyond his physical stature and capable hands, those who knew Greg will certainly remember his big heart first. He was caring and was known for his great sense of humor.

His mother, Erline McBurney Jesseman, predeceased him in 2023. Greg is survived by his father, Wendell Jesseman, his sister and brother-in-law, Karen and Tom White, and his brother and sister-in-law, Rick and Kelly Jesseman. He is also lovingly remembered by his six nephews and nieces -Tom White II and his wife Ellen, Heather Santos and her husband Eric, Michael White and his wife Jasmine, Jennifer Morneault and her husband Myles, Jared Jesseman, and Aiden Jesseman - as well as many great-nieces and great-nephews who brought him joy throughout his life.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, November 1st, 2025, at 1:00 p.m. at the Shared Ministry Church, 49 S Main Street in Lisbon, New Hampshire.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Lisbon Playground Fund, Lisbon Fire Department, or the Lisbon Fast Squad.
