Jesse Thwaite Obituary

Published by Legacy on Nov. 3, 2025.
Jesse Kent Thwaite, age 70, of South Park, passed away peacefully with his family by his side on November 1, 2025, after a long and courageous battle with Parkinson's Disease.

Born on July 7, 1955, Jesse was the beloved son of the late June and James Thwaite.

He was the devoted partner of 37 years to Christine Ambrosic; dear brother of Jay (Connie) Thwaite, Jeff (Linda) Thwaite, Joel (Sue) Thwaite, the late John (survived by Donna) Thwaite, and Jamie (survived by Sue) Thwaite. He is also lovingly remembered by his sister-in-law Sue (Jerry) Tristano, many nieces and nephews, cousins and his three cherished cats, Mama, Callie, and Orangey.

Jesse's passion was golf-he found joy, peace, and friendship on the greens. For many years, he worked as the dedicated groundskeeper at St. Louise de Marillac, where his care and attention to detail made the church a place of beauty and pride.

Those who knew Jesse will remember his warm smile, gentle humor, and unwavering kindness.

A memorial service will be held at a later date to celebrate Jesse's life.

Celebration of Jesse's 70th Birthday. He had a sweet tooth for oreo cookies and ice cream. Everlasting memories of Jesse being there during the happy and sad times with the Ambrosic family. We miss going on adventures in his van. Blessings that his suffering has ended and he is home with parents and brothers.

Jesse was a neighbor of ours for a lot of years , but more than that he was a great friend to both of us. We played a lot of golf together along with his late brother John. Jesse was always there to lend a hand or share a good laugh. He will be sadly missed., Randy and Angie Johnson
