Jorge Wheeler Obituary

Visit the Alternative Cremation & Funeral Service - Franklin website to view the full obituary.
Jorge Wheeler - lover of family, people, animals, philosophy, physics and really bad sci-fi TV, passed from this earth March 17 with loving family at his bedside. In celebration of his life, we invite you to join us for a gathering in his honor on Saturday, March 31, beginning at 5:00 pm at 625 Mercer Drive, Hermitage, TN. Jorge would like nothing better than us to gather and share memories and laughter. Light fare will be served. There will be a few of his favorite dishes to sample. Among his favorites are Greek, Mexican, and the Southern comfort dishes he grew up eating. Feel free to bring anything you think he would like as well, especially your own bottle. We look forward to seeing those who can attend and will be thinking of those who cannot. Also, please bring a note of your favorite memory of Jorge. These thoughts will be compiled and made available to everyone who would like to have them. We will have a playlist of his favorite tunes playing. Although, if you play an instrument, please bring it with you and play it. He so loved music and was quite the stereo virtuoso himself. Also, we will hold the first and only Jorge Wheeler Classic Pool Tournament, so bring your best cue or select from our prestige offering of well-played sticks. The Tournament will begin at 8:00 with registration on site prior to start time. We hope to see you there and know he will be greatly appreciative of your presence. He is loved by so many.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

I love you Jorge. You were always the sensible counterpoint to all Jamie's hair brained, crazy ideas. Of course I always liked Jamie's way but I respect your sensibility! Give my best to Edna and Big G and a hug and a kiss for Julie. I had fun seeing you and Tia this last fall in Nashville. Thanks for the great directions! I'm getting old so it won't be too long til I join you bro. If it sounds like you're not dead and we are just hanging out here it is true. We have been together for 50 years and I'm not gonna let the grim reaper separate us. My spirit and yours are one let it be known that you and me and Jamie are inseparable in time and space by the grace of God. Lucky you to be in his loving arms first.

I left home at 16 & moved in with the Wheelers, then Jorge & I got a place, & always remained lifetime best friends. He truly was my brother, as much as Greg. I cannot ever remember having one cross word with Jorge, only kindness for over 50 years!
