Jesse Edward Alviso born Christmas day in the year 1929 departed this earth April 1, 2010. One of seven children born to Jenny and Frank Alviso: Madera's son grew up in the neighborhood of Sonora (once known as Madera Street) and Columbia. There he learned the way of the world under the corner street light, along with old buddies that would come together to celebrate his 80th birthday swapping stories of days gone by. Jesse's career began in Madera with the Bureau of Reclamation and Madera County Road Department.

Who could foresee that Jesse would many years later, sensitive to his mother's lack of transportation, would be given the opportunity as a civil engineer with Department of Transportation to lay the foundation of Madera's current public transportation system with the Dial-A-Ride Program? Jesse returned to his birthplace, Madera, after 37 years with Cal Trans.

The years that followed Jesse spent many hours on his life hobbies. A direct descendant of Domingo Alviso a Spanish soldier of the Anza Expedition in 1776, Jesse documented, recorded, and cataloged family history. A skilled carpenter Jesse could be found in his workshop formatting his next project, and as he said "making sawdust". Music and family completed his life.

In his own words:
"I'm going to live, love, this day and every day because I may never pass this way again."

Jesse was preceded in death by his son Arthur Julian Alviso, his parents Juanita "Jennie" and Frank Alviso; brothers, Sonny, Carl, Gerald, his sister Lorraine and his wife Ibe.

He is survived by his daughter Timi Milor and husband Paul; Annette Lee and husband Wilson; grandchildren, Johnene Steinberg and husband Lawrence, Jason McKee and wife Meggan, Shawna Demilo and husband Michael, Jennifer Klassen and husband Darren and Paul Lewis Milor; his great grand children, Madison and Aidan Steinberg, Lewis Klassen, Jessica Berlow, and Joshua Lee; his sister Evelyn Alviso and brother Bob Alviso and wife Rita.
Jesse will be missed and loved by his many nieces and nephews.

Visitation was held on: Thursday, April 8, 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM followed by a Recitation of the Rosary at 7:00 PM at Jay Chapel, Madera, CA.
Mass of Christian Burial was celebrated on: Friday, April 9, 2010, 11:00 AM at St. Joachim Catholic Church, Madera, CA. Interment followed at: Calvary Cemetery, Madera, CA
