Jesse Leshwange tragically passed away on September 9th, 2022, at the age of 30, in Pembroke, Ontario while out for a swim.

Jesse was known to many as exceptionally kind, generous, and beaming with positivity. He dedicated much of his time to bringing joy to others through his unmistakable, contagious laugh and bright, honest smile. Jesse enjoyed hitting the gym, practicing Karate, gaming, singing, and hanging out with both friends and loved ones during his spare time. He shared a lot of his time and energy with those around him, and through his celebrated life made many friends who we can only hope can continue to spread his unique brand of humour, kindness, loyalty and immense care for others.

Jesse is survived by his many friends, his mother Simone, his younger brother Alphonse, and his younger sister Melissa. He is predeceased by his father, who he kept dear to his heart since his own untimely passing.

His legacy will live on in the minds of everyone he interacted with and in the hearts of all of those he touched, including those he had the great fortune of meeting in person, as well as those he only knew online. On Saturday, September 17th at The Simple Alternative in Pickering, visitation will be held at 11am, with funeral service beginning at 12pm and reception to follow.
