She was a faithful member and attended regularly until her health prevented her from being able to leave her home.

Jewel was a homemaker and worked very hard over the years to make sure her children were cared for. She worked outside of the home at several different jobs. Her love of quilting and crocheting turned into work as so many people wanted her to make something for them. She made numerous quilts, giving many away. Her greatest joy in life came from spending time with her family. Except for the very young grandchildren, everyone has the memories of the Sunday dinners and holiday meals at her house with lots of food and lots of family.
