Jesse Eli Russell of Ada and Midwest City, OK was born September 10, 1982 to Ronnie and Mary (Biege) Russell. He attended Byng and Nicoma Park Schools, where he enjoyed playing sports, especially baseball. He had a lifelong love of the sport, most especially the Boston Red Sox. Jesse will be remember by all who knew and loved him as a gregarious, generous, and somewhat mischievous man who had a special place in his heart for animals. After fighting a brave battle against glioblastoma, Jesse went home to be with the Lord on September 6, 2015. His earthly presence will be missed by many, but we rejoice in knowing that we will see him again someday in heaven.

Jesse is survived by his daughter, Peyton, of Yukon who was the absolute light of his life and the reason he fought the cancer so very hard to his last breath; his son, Jordon Morgan, of Yukon. His wife, Amanda Boardman Russell; He is also survived by his parents, Donny and Mary Fisher, of Midwest City; sister Ronda Sockey and husband, Motley Allison, of Ada; sister Casey Vogt and husband, Justin, of Oklahoma City; sister Ralania Tignor and husband, Jimmy, of Stonewall; and sister Karri Licea and husband, Joce, of Stonewall.

Jesse's faithful companion and loving friend, Jennifer Cooksey of Midwest City, was with him through thick and thin to the very end.

Jesse was preceded in death by his father, Ronnie Russell; paternal grandparents, RD and Inez Russell and Benny and Pauline Fisher; maternal grandparents, AR and Sissy East; and many other loved ones.
