Gerald  E. "Jerry" Jewell, age 80, went to be with his Heavenly Father on Jan. 15, 2010, at Provincial House. He was born April 29, 1929, in Detroit, the only child of Elmer and Edna (Bauman) Jewell; both are deceased. Jerry served in the U.S. Navy during the Korean Conflict, 1949-1953. He was a sonar man on the submarine USS Cubera. He received his Mechanical Engineering Degree from Tri-State University in Indiana and his Master’s Degree from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. On Aug. 24, 1957, he married Joan Mosier in Van Wert, Ohio, and she survives. Also surviving are two fantastic sons, Jerry Jr. (Laura) Jewell of Waterford, Mich., and Ken (Sylvia) Jewell of Augusta, Mich; his grandchildren, whom he adored and in whom he had so much pride, Gregg, Melanie, Evan, Jordan Marie, Robert, Chantel (Cameron) Varwig and Abby; a precious great-grandson, Hayden Varwig; and two very special people who have been so supportive during his illness, sister-in-law and husband, Suette and Dave Overholt of Downs, Ill. Jerry was an engineer at Chrysler Corp. for 30 years. He began his career in Pomana, Calif., at Convair Aircraft Company and got his pilot’s license while there. In the ’50s he developed a gas additive for Go-Cart engines and raced for several years. Jerry was an avid golfer, getting a hole-in-one in 1993. He loved woodworking, sailing, hunting and bicycling.  His favorite memories were teaching his sons and wife to golf and coaching his sons’ baseball teams at Onsted. Jerry was a big sports fan of the University of Michigan  and all the Detroit teams. He was a member of the Raisin Valley Friends Church and was a Mason and Shriner. The last years were challenging for Jerry and family. We are forever indebted to the kind and caring staff at Provincial House and Hospice of Lenawee, who helped him maintain his self-respect. We all loved him so much and he will be extremely missed, but we know he is at peace and can rest eternally. As per Jerry’s request, cremation has taken place and a Remembrance Memorial will be held at a later date. Contributions in memory of Jerry may be made to Raisin Valley Friends Church, Hospice of Lenawee or American Diabetes Association. Arrangements have been entrusted to the J. Gilbert Purse Funeral Home, Adrian.   |
