Jessie spent his career as a drill press operator for General Motors, dedicating many years to his work. Outside of his profession, he had a passion for adventure and the outdoors. He raced motorcycles, enjoyed water skiing, and loved playing golf, always embracing life with energy and enthusiasm.
He was a beloved father, grandfather, and brother, known for his strength and adventurous spirit. Jessie's love for his family was unwavering, and he cherished the time spent with his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his parents; his wife, Angie Wilson; twelve brothers; and five sisters.
He is survived by his son, Robert Jess Wilson of Waterford, Michigan; his daughter, Christie Lynn of Waterford, Michigan; his brother, R.A. Wilson and wife Mae of Tuckerman; three grandchildren, Aleona, Kyle, and Autumn; and three great-grandchildren.
