Lee Jewett Obituary

Jewett, Lee, previously of Fullerton, passed away May 11, 2008 in Bullhead City, Arizona. He will be sadly missed by his wife of 46 years, Marsha Glennie Jewett; daughters, Jeri Heissman (R.C.), Jackie Moore (Rick) and Bo Jewett; son, Darin Jewett: brother, Billy Jewett (Clara); his sisters, Cheri Brenner (Frank) and Penny Snow (Allen); brother-in-law, Larry Glennie (Sandy); sister-in-law, Nancy Glennie Motes; seven grandchildren, Shane, Alaina, Andrew, Autumn, Elyse, Blaine and Lauren and four great-grandchildren who dearly loved him; sixteen nieces and nephews who will miss him greatly. Lee was born in Orange, CA in 1939 to Bill and Winnie Jewett and was raised in Fullerton, California. Lee's grandfather, James Pearson, was chief of police in Fullerton for many years. In addition to being a wonderful husband, Lee was a fabulous father. He enjoyed trips with his family, teaching them how to fish (even though he rarely caught one himself), camp and barbeque turkeys. Lee was a state champion trap shooter and worked in the construction industry for many years. After retirement, he enjoyed making jewelry, tending his tomato plants and talking on the phone (to Uncle Allen and Uncle Billy). He retired to a community that enticed visitors and he was able to enjoy visits from lifelong friends, children and grandchildren. Memorial Services were held May 20th. Donations may be made to the American Lung Association, 1570 E. 17th St.,Ste. F Santa Ana, CA 92705.
