Jesse Miller-Williams Obituary Jesse Jr. Miller-Williams August 4, 1993 － October 30, 2023 Philadelphia, PA － Jesse Jr. Miller-Williams, 30, unexpectedly passed away October 30, 2023. He was born in Philadelphia, PA on August 4, 1993 to Tineka Williams and Jesse Miller. Jesse attended school in Philadelphia and was a very talented young man who loved to make his own music, design his own sneakers and write his own books. He also had a thing for tattoos, whatever he put his mind to he could do it and was very multitalented. He had a big heart and was willing to help anyone. Jesse would often shut down and no one would know where he was but when he would come back he had ideas and he knew what he wanted to do and how he wanted to do it. Jesse was a very special young man who touched a lot of people. He was always there for his family and friends no matter what the problem was or how hard the situation was. You could say he was an encourager. He kept a lot of things from us and what he was going through because he wanted us to always think he had everything under control. Jesse had a smile that would light up the room. For a young man, Jesse went through a lot in his short life, too much for one young person to go through. He would say to his Nana, we can get through this or I will work it out. He was smart as a whip and could fix anything on two or four wheels. Even though Jesse didn‚Äôt have children of his own, he adopted a beautiful little girl named Adora who he loved with all his heart. He also had a very special bond with all of his nieces and nephews and they were crazy about him. Jesse was also a character, as his brother Nick would say, and his mother too. You never knew who you were going to get (Jesse, Solo, or Justin). There is so much to say about Jesse as he had many parts to him. The best part about Jesse was he brought laughter, joy, happiness, and lots of smiles to everyone and he has touched a lot of hearts. The world will never know the talent of Jesse because his life was taken too soon. Rest well Jesse and know that you will be greatly missed. Jesse leaves behind his parents, Tineka Williams and Jesse Miller; his step-father, Gregory Banks; his grandparents, Carolyn Williams Baxter, Johnny C. Baxter, Carolyn Miller, and Joe Jesse Parker; and his siblings, Imani, Hashim, Jen-Jen, Eugene, Jada, Jevon, Shaye, Miguel, and Jelisa. He also leaves behind a very special friend who we all consider family, Johnanna Riddick; his best friend Shaq; and a whole host of nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and cousins, plus friends. He will be joining his brother, Nick-a-leen Kashrio Bishop-Williams who preceded him in death. He will be greatly missed by all.
