Paul Hewitt Obituary
Paul Harvey Hewitt of Woodland, passed away peacefully on the morning of Tuesday, Jan. 17, 2012 after battling lung cancer for several years. Paul passed away surrounded by the love, comfort and care of his children, wife and family. Paul, 68, soon to have been 69, was born in Madera, to Bernice and Paul S. Hewitt on Feb. 17, 1943. His family moved to Davis, when he 14 years old where he attended Davis High School. In 1961 Paul married Dolly Pedroia. They were married for 31 years and had nine children together. Paul later married Carla Weir with whom he spent the last 18 years of his life.
Paul knew the value of hard work and dedicated his life and livelihood to the construction industry. He owned his own family construction business, Hewitt and Pedroia Inc. for many years of his career. Paul later worked for Teichert Construction until his retirement in 2006.
Paul lived a very full and robust life filled with adventurous experiences of the outdoors. He enjoyed many hobbies including hunting with his boys, fishing with his buddies, snowmobiling, barbecuing, and camping with his family. He also always enjoyed a full house, especially family gatherings at his home for the holidays and get togethers.
Paul is survived by his wife, Carla Hewitt; and Paul's nine children, Kim Lineaweaver and husband Dave, Jamie Moe and husband Dave, Daryle Hewitt and wife Cammie, John Hewitt, Brent Hewitt, Corina Moore, Brian Hewitt and Karin Long, Liberty Dawson and husband Joe, and Lori Hewitt and Kris Allen. He is also survived by 25 grandchildren, six great-grandchildren; sister, Jane Hanson; and his mother, Bernice Hewitt. Paul was preceded in death by his father, Paul S. Hewitt; and his grandson, Jason William Lineaweaver.

Dad I will miss you so much. I will miss our nice visits on the phone and seeing you come visit us in Montana. I will miss hearing your voice and all the good advice you have given me over the years. I will keep you close in my heart. When I see the mountains and the tree's and all the wild life here in Montana, I will think of you and how much you loved the outdoors and fishing and hunting. I will miss you dad. I will see you some day soon in heaven with all our loved ones who have gone on before us. I am so thankful that you trusted in Jesus as your saviour. Your loving daughter, Jamie

Carla we are so sorry for your loss as well as ours. We were praying for a miracle, but God chose to take Dad home for reasons we don't know now, but will someday. Losing our son Jason just 10 months ago is still so hard and now Dad, its unbearable at times. We love you Dad and Jason! I know this is so hard for all of us and we will miss Dad so much, but we should all be happy for him too because he is in Heaven now, no longer suffering the pain of this world. I was so happy for Dad when he told me he made things right with God and that he was not afraid to die now, for Jesus was his savior. He is now with his dad, Grandpa Hewitt and our Jason, and all the other believers that have gone before him. We will miss Dad so very much. I already miss his calls and being able to call him too. Dad had wanted to come to Montana to hunt with the"guys" Dave, Jason (before he passed), lil and big Ryan, and Michael. Almost every time he called he talked about getting tags to come up to hunt. He loved hunting and the outdoors. I am sure he is having the time of his life now. Carla, we will keep you and all of our family in our prayers. We love you all~
