Jessie’s wonderful, funny, and outgoing personality will be greatly missed by all who loved and knew him. He was the life of all the family get togethers and we were guaranteed to get a good laugh whenever he was around. He was a member of the singing group the Dixie Wonders where he played the Bass Guitar (he knew he could THUMP that Bass) and where he also sang background. He was employed with Griffin Farms for 50 years. Everyone who knew him all called him “GOAT” and “Unk”. He will be greatly missed for his funny personality.

His precious memories will live on through: his wife Jeannette Stevenson: his sons Antjuan Allen and Quenton Stevenson: his daughter Trena Maben: brothers Bennie (Rilda ) Barnette, Louis Williams, Roy (Alberta) Williams, Tommy ( Barbara) Stevenson, Jr., Johnny (Shirley) Stevenson, Eric Stevenson, and Tommy Stevenson III: his sisters Annie Jefferson, Carolyn Wright, Cynthia Stevenson, Redy, Lavoria, Rosie, Shirley, Mamie, Felicia, and Erica Stevenson: his uncle Robert Stevenson: host of grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
