Chesapeake - Jesse Tyler Harris, born on June 9, 1985, in Norfolk, Virginia, passed away tragically on November 14, 2025, in Chesapeake, Virginia, at the age of 40. His untimely death was the result of a tragic accident; he was a pedestrian struck by a car.
Jesse spent much of his life in Norfolk, where he attended Lake Taylor High School. Although he did not complete his high school education, Jesse went on to establish himself as a skilled electrician. His work was a testament to his dedication and expertise in his field.
Beyond his professional life, Jesse had a deep appreciation for music and was an avid fan of the Dallas Cowboys. He found solace and inspiration in spiritual pursuits and had a keen interest in antiques, often enjoying the stories and histories they held.
Jesse was preceded in death by his father, Carroll K. Harris Jr., and his brother, Evan Harris. He is survived by his loving mother, Cheryl (Ring) Harris, and his brothers, Nathan and Trevor Harris. He will also be dearly missed by his Uncle Jeff, Aunt Pat, Aunt Mary, cousins April and Michelle, along with numerous other family members and friends.
