In loving memory of
Jean Stevenson Aristilde
March 10, 2025
Jean Stevenson Aristilde was a devoted son and father from Immokalee whose life — and ties to his Haitian roots — mattered deeply to those who loved him.
Remembering Jean
A life held close in memory
Jean Stevenson Aristilde was known to family and neighbors in Immokalee as a son whose ties to his homeland were important and as a father to children living in Haiti. Public reporting identifies Jean as a 32‑year‑old man of Haitian descent who lived in the Immokalee community. In the days after his death, his mother, Marie Aristilde, spoke about her grief and the deep loss to the family and neighborhood where Jean was known.
Although public records and news coverage focus on the circumstances surrounding his death, the available reliable sources also make clear that Jean was a real person with family responsibilities and connections across two countries. He is reported to have left behind three children in Haiti, and his family and community have called for answers and for those who remember him to come forward with information that might help.
Because there is no published funeral‑home obituary or family‑authorized memorial located that matches his full name and the exact date of death (March 10, 2025), this remembrance honors the verified facets of Jean’s life found in public reporting: his role within his family, his Haitian heritage, and the place he held in his Immokalee community. He is remembered here with respect and with recognition that the public record is limited; those who knew him best will hold the fuller, private memories of his character, hopes, and everyday life.
