Jesse David Evans

Jesse David Evans, a loving husband, father, son, and resident of Calhoun, Georgia, passed away unexpectedly of natural causes on December 16, 2021 at the age of 34 while resting peacefully in his home.

Jesse is survived by his wife, (Melea Quinn Evans) of Calhoun; his daughters, Ellie Rose and Abbie Marie Evans; his parents, William Louis “Louie” Evans and Rosa Marie Williams Evans of Calhoun; his in-laws, Joe and Elaine Tuttolomondo of Calhoun; his sister, Jennifer Ozment and her husband Luke Ozment of Ringgold; his niece and nephew, Will and Gracyn Ozment; his sister-in-law and her husband, Andrea Tuttolomondo Henry and Evan Henry of Ringgold; his brother-in-law, Matthew Tuttolomondo; his father-in-law, Michael Quinn of Calhoun; and his brother-in-law, Colby Quinn. He is preceded in death by his brother, Joshua Paul Evans and both his paternal and maternal grandparents.

Jesse was born in Pensacola, Florida on July 29, 1987 to Louie and Rosa Evans. He attended Calhoun High School where he was very involved in the theater program and band. He and his wife met in high school and married on September 22, 2012. On March 18, 2016 and November 2, 2020 respectively, he welcomed his two beautiful daughters, whom he loved and adored with his whole heart.

Jesse was a devoted husband and wonderful father. He enjoyed Atlanta Falcons football, playing video games, and watching pro-wrestling events. Jesse had a passion for all sports, but especially football. He could name players, statistics, and call plays during games as if he were a professional ESPN broadcaster. Video games were always something that Jesse enjoyed- even at a young age. He spent many evenings playing a variety of video games online while enjoying his favorite beverage and listening to a variety of music. Jesse also had the opportunity to attend several pro-wrestling events with his wife and his friends. In addition, Jesse thoroughly enjoyed spending time with his friends and family. He particularly enjoyed spending time at the beach, by the pool side, and engaging in water sports (jet-skiing) at the lake.

Jesse had a deep passion and admiration for superheroes of all types often citing comics and referencing movies. Sometimes, you would even catch him in a Batman onesie. Much like his favorite superheroes, Jesse was always making people smile or laugh- both those he loved and cared for or even strangers. In the eyes of his wife, friends, and family, Jesse was able to live out his passion for superheroes as he embodied many of their qualities and attributes. All who had the opportunity to meet or interact with Jesse will miss him deeply.

A Celebration of Life will be held for Jesse on Thursday, December 23, 2021 at 1PM. Pastor Kelly Cohea will be officiating the service in the Chapel at Thomas Funeral Home.
The family will be receiving friends and family on December 23, 2021 from 11AM until the service hour at 1PM at Thomas Funeral Home.
