On April 26, 2022, Jesse Jacob Dispoto of Mountain View, CA, loving son and brother, passed away in Madera County, California at the age of 28.

Jesse was born on July 9, 1993, to Gary and Paula Dispoto at Stanford Hospital. He graduated from Alta Vista High School, Foothill College, and University of California Santa Cruz with a degree in Sociology. He went on to various pursuits after college and found a budding career as a tech recruiter.

Jesse was a person with a wide variety of passions and interests. He was a talented pen and paper artist. He loved to travel and had been too far flung places including Thailand, Japan, Israel, and Bolivia. He was "on the bus" and reveled in the jam band music scene. He loved Phish and, especially, Trey. He was an avid snowboarder. He recently learned to ride a motorcycle and enjoyed local rides with his friends. He was both an inward and outward free-spirited adventurer, with a passion for understanding and exploring his mind and its workings. He was a researcher, a digger. Jesse wanted and tried to do it all – focusing on a few things was not the Jesse way.

Jesse's strengths were abundant. Jesse was kind, loving and compassionate. He had a deep love for and close relationships with all of his family. He made friends easily and he made time for his friends. He was resilient. He had a way of rolling with the unexpected and moving on to newer and better days. He lit up a room with his warmth. He made us laugh and smile with his goofiness and his crazy rituals.

Jesse is survived by his brother, Brett, his mother, Paula, his father, Gary, his grandmothers, Joyce and Harriett, and his grandfather, Benjamin, as well as his aunts Joy, Kim, Erin, andBrooke, and his cousins Matthew, Zachary, Sarah, Alex, Jordan, Troy, Sasha, Jonah, and Avery.
