Jesse Lee Laughery, age 92, of Crookston, MN, passed away on Sunday, October 18, 2020, at the Sanford Medical Center on Broadway in Fargo, ND.
Jesse was born on October 11, 1928, in Orr, ND, the son of the late Charles and Rectina Jane (McCoy) Laughery. He grew up in Grygla, MN, and attended Spurs Grove School. He worked with his father on their cattle farm until he enlisted in the United States Marine Corps in 1951. On August 27, 1952, he was married to MaryJane Lee at Wesley United Methodist Church in Crookston, MN, and they made their home in Gentily, MN. He was honorably discharged from the Marines in 1953. He then worked for various area farmers; Brekken, Boucher, and Abrams. In 1955 the family moved to Crookston, MN, and he started moving houses with Ren Amiot until 1985. He also worked for the Parks and Recreation Department in Crookston. He was a longtime member of Our Savior's Lutheran Church in Crookston and in his free time he liked to read, keep busy on his phone, visit with people, watch Westerns, All-Star Wrestling, and animal shows, play cards, and do puzzles. He would also go deer hunting with friends and relatives and especially enjoyed being outside in the spring and summer weather.
