Jesse James Rhoades was born July 19, 2003, in Oklahoma City to Ronald
Glenn and Sherry Michelle (Holland) Rhoades. He passed away on
Wednesday, January 8, 2025, in Lake Calls, Texas at the age of 21.
Jesse grew up in Burneyville and graduated from Turner High School in
2022. He later attended Oklahoma State University IT in Okmulgee, where
he graduated with an associate degree in applied science (high voltage
line technician) in 2024. He also received a scholastic achievement of
Magna Cum Laude while attending OSU IT. His education led him to a
position with OnCor Electrical Division Fort Worth North Distribution.
He was currently living in Corral City, Texas.
Jesse's Love County upbringing led him to a true country lifestyle. He
enjoyed riding 4-wheelers with Kolby, Payton, Devin, and Jake at the
river, or going hunting with Trey. He loved ducks and wanted to build a
duck pond oasis. He loved playing video games, or being with his two
dogs, Peanut and Vince.
Growing up, he really liked Thomas the Train, and eventually playing
Mario Kart and other Mario games. He loved building Lego sets and Marvel
comics and their characters and movies based on them. He enjoyed
watching any movies which were made by or starring Adam Sandler,
especially Happy Gilmore.
Jesse's favorite season was winter, and it brought him the most joy when
it snowed. He would also cherish his time riding with Mema Francis and
Papa Carroll in their Camaro.
Jesse was a part of the Boy Scouts of America and enjoyed box car
racing. He was active with 4-H, where he participated in shooting
sports, and was also active with FFA. Jesse had also played a couple of
years of basketball and baseball. He was a member of the Jimtown Baptist
Church.
Jesse went on his first date with Brookelyn on December 3, 2023. They
went to the AMC Theater in Ardmore and watched Thanksgiving. He really
loved spending time and living his life with her, so much that he
planned to propose to her in May of this year. He loved messing with
her. He would turn up the radio all they way in his truck and roll the
windows down to bother her. He loved her with his whole heart.
Jesse is preceded in death by his grandparents, Frances Flatt and John
Holland and an uncle, Matthew Troy "Bo" Metcalf.
Those left to cherish Jesse's memory are his fiancé, Brookelyn
Mandrigues of Corral City; parents, Ronald Glenn and Sherry Michelle
Rhoades of Burneyville; brother, Frank Rhoades and wife Hailey of
Burneyville; sister, Cheyenne Rhoades and fiancé Colin Langston of
Marietta; grandparents, Gene and Sharon Rhoades of Burneyville and
