Jesse Justin Coale, 49, of Darlington, MD died at Franklin Square Medical Center on Sunday, March 27, 2022 after a valiant battle with cancer. He was born on April 21, 1972 in Havre de Grace, MD to his late father Frederick James Coale and his mother Sandra Lee (Fox) Slade.

Jesse was a very giving man who loved to work hard. He was a dedicated employee at Kumi Construction Management where he worked as a Highway Inspector. He was a friend to everyone, helping in whatever way he could in their time of need. He enjoyed telling funny stories (mostly about himself) and loved to make people laugh. He was very active in AA and was an advocate for those suffering from all types of addiction. He himself was proud to be in recovery for five years. When not spending time with family, he enjoyed watching football and baseball.

In addition to his mother Sandra at home, Jesse is survived by his step-father Albert, two sisters: Crystal Lyn Coale (fiancée of Mike Caudill) of Darlington, MD and Jessica Marie (Josh) Wilson of Knightdale, N.C., several nieces and nephews: Jasmine Zaebst, Slade Zaebst and Tyler Roerick, along with numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.

In addition to his father, Jesse was predeceased by his daughter Samantha Morgan Coale.
