It’s with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our dear friend and longtime team member, John “Jayare” Robert Estelle, Jr., age 53.
Jayare was an important part of the Ledden Palimeno team, serving as our Irrigation and Outdoor Lighting specialist. He played an integral role in installing plumbing and lighting systems for the custom pools we build. His knowledge, craftsmanship, and dedication contributed to so many of the projects we are proud of today.
But Jayare was much more than the work he did. He was a valued teammate and friend who brought humor, personality, and plenty of laughter to our days. His presence was part of the everyday rhythm of our company, and he will be deeply missed.
Outside of work, Jayare truly enjoyed life. He loved fishing, working on vehicles, and spending time outdoors. He was happiest out on the water, enjoying a day on a boat, or driving down the beach in search of the perfect spot to shore fish. He also spent many years playing paintball, making memories and friendships along the way.
Above all, Jayare cherished his family. He leaves behind his beloved wife, Lisa, and their daughter, Rachel, whom he adored.
Our hearts are especially heavy for Lisa and Rachel, and the Estelle family (Pat, Kim, Morgan and Jack). We hope they find comfort in knowing how many lives Jayare touched and how deeply he was loved.
The entire Ledden Palimeno family will miss Jayare dearly. We are grateful for the years we shared and the memories that will stay with us.
Rest easy, Jayare. Thank you for the friendship, the laughter, and the memories. You will always be a part of the Ledden Palimeno family, and you will never be forgotten.
- The Ledden Palimeno Family
