Last Goodbye

Heartbreaking Picture shows doting dad, 32, Face Timing daughter goodnight moments before he was killed by falling branch.

Jesse Maxwell, 32, was one of at least three people who died in Georgia last week after tornadoes and severe storms slammed the state.

Lineman Jesse Maxwell was one of the three to die after tornadoes and storms tore through the North and Central Georgia Thursday and Friday.

The 32-year-old powerline worker had been tasked with removing fallen trees to restore power to folks in his native Jasper County late Friday night.

His wife, 11-year-old son and three daughters have been left ‘devastated’ by his death. Maxwell’s last minutes were spent talking to his youngest daughter before bedtime, his wife said.

Maxwell leaves behind a wife Hope, 11-year-old Lucas, and three daughters – Lorynn, 7, Maddie, 6, and River, 6. His family has been left ‘devastated’ by his sudden loss.

Maxell’s family remembered him as “an excellent father and husband who brought his family to Relevant Church in Locust Grove every Sunday” in a statement they posted on Saturday after the news had circulated.

According to the article, Maxwell enjoyed deer hunting with his 11-year-old son Lucas and “was also a wonderful girl dad to his three daughters”—Lorynn, who was seven years old, Maddie, who was six, and River, who was the youngest.

The memorial stated that, “If he wasn’t coaching their softball games, he was there in the stands supporting his children.”

The family has since set up a GoFundMe page to help offset funeral costs, and other expenses that will likely surface in the wake of the father-of-four’s unexpected death.

Maxwell had been a ‘devoted’ husband to wife Hope, and that he will be remembered fondly for ‘his love for her and their children’.

Most of the state was affected by the tempests, which in recent years have been increasingly common in the Peach State – a place not typically associated with tornadoes.

Experts attribute the recent increase in tornado activity to a combination of increased tornado activity and improved methods of reporting them, such as better technology and cellphones.

Pam Knox, head of the University of Georgia Weather Network, warns that storms might intensify in the following months, when tornadoes are most likely in Georgia.

‘There are basically two peaks in terms of when they’re most probable, with the biggest in the spring, like March through May,’ Knox explained.

‘And then we have a secondary peak in the fall around November, which is just because of the way that the fronts are moving north and south in the United States.

Hope wrote of her husband Saturday: ‘I need you more than you will ever know. But I know you are joking with Jesus. You will forever be my hero and I will love you until my last breath.’

‘But we have had tornadoes every month of the year, and they’ve been deadly every month of the year.’

She warned ‘And it can also happen any time of day or night, although we tend to get more of them in the afternoon to evening just because we’ve had the heat of the day to really build up those storms.’
