Jayo Chev'ris was the last and permanent husband of Thracia Cho-Leem, and the father of two of her children, Rosala Cho-Leem and Jayo Cho-Leem. He was a responsible father, an architect by trade, who cared deeply for his children and earned their love with patience and generosity. He was known to discipline his children by frowning and calmly expressing disappointment, which was apparently unbearable to the children. His son, Jayo Cho-Leem, was named after him by his wife.
