Obituary
Jesse Zachariah Spurrell was born on December 20, 2001 at Neepawa Hospital. He was a beautiful Christmas baby under Grandma and Grandpa’s Christmas tree. Jesse was always special, hyper, and full of life. Being diagnosed with autism at 3 ¾ years helped explain some of Jesse’s hyperactive energy. Jesse went to school at Gladstone Elementary and continued to William Morton Collegiate. He had many teachers and EA’s who loved working with him. He touched their lives as much as they helped him.
After Grad, Jesse returned to school for 1 more year, learning more life skills. He started going to Sprucedale Industries 1 day a week. He loved it. He couldn’t wait until fall and start going every day. That was never meant to be. Jesse was diagnosed just before Easter 2020 with EHE – Epithelioid Hemangioendothelioma, a rare cancer which begins in the inner lining of the blood vessels and spreads to soft tissues. Jesse had many tumors on his liver and both lungs. Jesse stayed for the last year while remaining stable. Middle of May this year, Jesse stayed at home for his health rapidly deteriorated, faster than anyone expected.
Our precious boy passed away at 11:24 am, July 21. Even though this cancer can be painful, Jesse passed away with no pain, with his dad, mom and brother Ethan at his side. Jesse’s last words were, “God is good.”
Jesse is predeceased by his grandpa Allan Fehr, and great grandparents on both sides.
He is survived by his dad and mom, Jason and Sherri, brothers Justin and Ethan, sister Abi, grandmother Margaret Fehr, nan Sharon Spurrell, many aunts, uncles and cousins.
