Jennifer L. Dise (née Gale) passed away peacefully on Monday, April 13, 2026, surrounded by her loving family. She will be remembered for her vibrant spirit, adventurous heart, and the joy she brought to everyone who knew her.
Born in Middlefield, Ohio, Jenn grew up with strong ties to an aviation-influenced family and later built a successful career in the aviation and finance industry. In 1999, she joined JetLeases, where she advanced into investment banking and developed lasting professional and personal relationships, including meeting her husband, Russell Dise.
Beyond her career, Jenn lived life with passion and energy. She had a deep love for the outdoors and nature, especially time spent on the water fishing in Florida and the Bahamas. She enjoyed boating adventures, outdoor sports, and staying active through equestrian jumping, tennis, golf, rollerblading, and hockey. Her creativity also shone through in her woodworking projects, which brought joy to those around her.
After many years in Juno Beach, Florida, Jenn recently made her home in Aurora, Ohio, where she enjoyed the company of her beloved dogs and ducks. She was known for her playful humor, especially when affectionately referring to her Jack Russell Terriers as her “little terrors.”
Jenn is survived by her devoted husband, Russell W. Dise; her parents, David and Carol Gale; her brother Scott Gale and sister-in-law Jaime Gale; as well as extended family members and loved ones who will cherish her memory.
The family has requested that those who wish to honor Jenn consider donations to Addiction Recovery Services at University Hospitals in her memory. Funeral and remembrance services will be held in Ohio, with additional gatherings planned to celebrate her life and legacy.
Jenn’s warmth, courage, and joyful spirit will continue to live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.
