Jesse Abraham St. Clair Jr, age 87, passed away on April 9, 2016, in St. George, Utah. He was born January 29, 1929, in Limestone Township, Moutour County, Pennsylvania, to Jesse Abraham Sr. and Mary Bitler St. Clair. He married Joyce D. Stowe-St. Clair on December 3, 1988, in the Jordan River LDS Temple, South Jordan, Utah.
Jesse (Jack) was raised in up-state New York next to Cayuga Lake on a dairy farm. At age 23 he left home and joined the Air Force and served from 1952 to 1956. He had a love for all outdoors: hunting, fishing, camping, bird-watching and horses. He had such an inventive mind and loved to tinker and build with his hands. He had such a kind heart and was so patient with all he came to know.
Jesse is survived by his wife, Joyce Stowe-St. Clair; his children: Utanna Tassie, Steve (Peggy) St.Clair, John (Sheryl) St. Clair, Kathy (Kenny) Spencer, Jeff Stowe, James (Dawn) Stowe, John Stowe, Jeremy Stowe, and Jenifer (Marc) McCorkle.
