Jessie Alexander

Jessie Easlick Alexander, 95, passed away in the early morning hours of Thursday, March 13, 2025 in Chandler, Arizona. Jessie was born in Mt. Holly, NJ on January 21, 1930 to Beulah and Vinton Easlick. After graduating high school, Jessie worked as an administrative assistant at Ft. Dix, where she met, and 3 months later, married Phillip Charles Alexander (Al) who was a Lieutenant in the US Army. Jess and Al were married for 60 years and had five children together. The Alexander family lived in several states, mainly on the East Coast. Jess and Al retired in Sunnyvale, California. Throughout her life Jessie worked as an Administrative Assistant, Word Processor, and as a realtor. In addition to raising a family and working outside the home, Jessie had numerous hobbies including painting, sewing, dancing, genealogy, and dog showing. Jessie was an avid genealogist who shared her passion for research with her sister Kass and cousin Elma. We have fond memories of the laughter and joy that resulted when the three got together to "work" on genealogy. Together, Jess, Kass, and Elma researched and compiled a vast amount of data, and published 5 books. Jessie was also a Pekingese dog breeder and handler. In her 40 years as a breeder/handler, she raised and showed multiple champion Pekes. Jessie cared for her pack as if they were family, and found it difficult to part with the puppies she bred and raised. Jessie was a member of the Gaspar de Portola Chapter of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution, in Santa Clara county, California. She served as vice regent, and regent in her chapter, and also as state recording secretary. Jessie is predeceased by her husband Phillip (Al) Alexander, her daughter, Tina Rae Alexander, her sister Kathleen (Kass) Regn, and her brother-in-law John Regn. Jessie is survived by her 4 remaining children: Bruce (Anne), Blaze (Mary), Heather, and Heidi, 10 grandchildren: Christopher, Elizabeth (Wilson), Megan (Danielle), Phillip (Elena), Emily, Melissa (Henry), Elisa (David), Evan, Nicole (Jeff), and Kelly (Taylor), and 11 great grandchildren: Jordan, Nicholas, John, Wyatt, Guiliana, Scarlett, Lucy, Lincoln, Lucas, Felix, Ethan, and 2 on the way.
