With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Jess R. Dunlap of Wilson, NY, on December 29, 2024, at the age of 51. Born in Rochester, NY, on September 4, 1973, Jess was the cherished son of Linda (Michael) Zemaitis, the late Gregory Dunlap, and John E. Tall.

Jess was a dedicated employee of Washington Mills and a man who found joy in life's simplest pleasures. He loved hunting, fishing, riding motorcycles, capturing the beauty of the moon in photographs, and feeding the birds that brought nature closer to home. His happiest moments were spent with his four children and family, creating memories filled with love, laughter, and togetherness. Jess's humor, kindness, and unwavering love for his family were the threads that wove together a beautiful tapestry of a life well-lived.

He was a devoted father to Aaliyah Bathrick, Brayden Dunlap, Cylie Dunlap, and Ellie Dunlap-Goode. Jess was a loving brother to John Tall Jr., Kari Renna, Matthew Tall, Michelle, Tacy, and Sam Dunlap, and a treasured grandson of the late Robert and Patricia Parker and John and Dory Dunlap. He was a beloved nephew to Brad Dunlap, Debbie Ventura, Geoffrey Dunlap, and the late Gail S. Morrison.

Family and friends are invited to celebrate Jess's life at Rutland-Corwin Funeral Home, Inc., 2670 Main Street, Newfane, NY, on Friday, January 3, 2025, from 2:00 PM to 4:30 PM.
