I just found out I lost my dear and loving sister Jewell (Jan,18th 2025) I wish I  knew as I  would have come to her. My name is Pam Francil I was Jewells baby sister from Worcester, ma just  outside of Boston. We would write each other often and lost touch about 5yrs back. Jewell was so very much a caring, loving, beautiful person inside and out  and was always there to help when someone was in need. She will be in my heart forever . Condolences to the family especially Bob whom I never met but Jewell would talk about him often ,she was always a great comfort to me even with the distance between us and she will be dearly missed.

I first met jewell years ago,as her son  Brian was first married to my childhood friend Debbie.Had many visits at her and Ray's home. She was always welcoming and kind to me.I hadn't seen her in years,but sad she's gone.

I am so sorry all of the family and I sincerely apologize your loss. Mrs. Jewel was such a beautiful person. I had first met her over 25 years ago,  as my mother was engaged to wed David before his passing. I have memories of the short time I had with her as I hadn't gotten to see her in a long time. I always enjoyed the time with her be it her telling hilarious stories, she was so serious funny if that makes sense.  Playing music with Bob, or letting her cut my hair. She just really enjoyed that. She would say,"youngun I don't cut hair anymore but look at your head. She would say I was lucky to which I agree. We had some great talks sitting in her chair. She even had tried to dye my hair back my normal color after someone had tried highlights and failed. She said, " Child, what are you doing letting someone make you look like a orange and yellow spotted skunk? Go down stairs, NOW! Wonderful memories!
She was definitely one of a kind and will be deeply missed.  
  With Love, Jeremy Livingston

I’ll never forget you and your love and kindness. Most of all your golden friendship 🩷

It was a Blessing for me to get to meet Jewel after marrying her grandson. My husband has shared so many of his childhood experiences and memories of her with me. I feel like I have known her my whole life. Although I only held a handful of conversation with her, I cherish them. They were so meaningful. 
Sleep that peaceful sleep for now my friend! Jesus Is coming Soon and he will wake you up again.

I have never known a better person 
             than Jewel. 
She was as a mother to me. She welcomed me and her first grandchild as if I were her own. She taught me how to be a mother, a lady, an and a better person with values and respect. Many hours we spent laughing and crying. 
She was beautiful in every way and will be sadly missed. Rest high my lady in the arms of Jesus till we meet again. 
                                                        Loving You,
                                                                 Ginger
