With a heavy heart on February 17th, 2025, Jesse ‘Jack’ Jacob Mattila (Deplonty) passed away at the Sault Area Hospital at age 48. Jesse was born March 18th, 1976, a cherished son of the late Kenny Mattila and Cyndi Deplonty.
Jesse will be remembered by his children Tristan Mattila, Matt ‘Tabitha’ Mattila and their mother Karri Poirier.
Brother to Tina (Andrew) Bramham, Erik Deplonty, and Jeremy Mattila. Grandson to the late Gary and late Angeline Mattila and late Stan Deplonty and surviving Grandmother Shirley Deplonty. Nephew to Jeannie (George) Ellis, Viola (Marlon) Gasparotto, Tammy (Brad) Thiessen, Jenny (Jeff) Richards, Lois (Scott) McKenzie, and Richard (Louise) Deplonty.
Jesse will be missed by his many nieces, nephews and relatives across the country. And by his friend Dave who spent the last few months looking over Jesse ‘Jack’.
Jesse had a big heart and was loved deeply by those around him, was liked by his peers and always went beyond to help. Jesse helped those in need, and he knew what it was like to fall on hard times.
We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Dr. Febbraro, 3B staff, Dr. Bishop, Jennifer RN and Shania Mazetti for their care and compassion for the remaining hours of Jesse's life.
