I first met Doug Jewett in 1981 when I did my ride along with Rescue 2. He was so knowledgeable and brave and taught me so much. We remained friends during my time as an ambulance driver for Randle Eastern and to this day he left an everlasting memory in my heart.  Sad to know he left us so soon, always wanted to run into him again, I was 20 years old back then, I’m  65 now, and still have not forgotten this amazing man, RIP

To the best and cutest firefighter I have ever known. You sure did light up my life. May you rest in peace.Patricia

Toni and family.  Your Dad will be remembered by many.  He did some incredible and amazing stuff and saved many lives during his life time. The Jewett family will never be the same without him.  He will be missed and is loved by all. Must be raising hell in Heaven!

We will miss you primo.  Love you always!!!

May Doug now Rest In Peace.. Condolences to your family for your loss.

Loved you much uncle Douglas! Till we meet again, rest in peace

I first met Doug when I was about 11 (around 1961).  My dad was stationed in Japan (Air Force) and Doug was a Marine.  Don't remember exactly how he and my sister, Barbara, met but I thought he was the cutest guy ever.  He had a wonderful smile.  You could tell there was a devilish imp inside trying hard to get out. Even though we didn't keep in contact over the last many years, I thought of him often and always smiled because of him.  May light perpetual shine upon him. Amen!

Will always be thinking about you, but I know you are in a better place now and there is no need to worry because one day we shall meet again.

Tio, you will always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you for teaching me what bravery looks like and to never let my fears hold me back! Love you to the moon and back!!

My thoughts & prayers go out to the Jewett/Chavez family; I had the privilege of retiring Doug from MDFR. May he rest in eternal peace! ??

Dad, I will miss you everyday till I see you again. I love you..

The world has lost a wonderful human being. May God bless you forever for all your good deeds.  My condolences to the family.
