Jules Bryan Mettert, 64, of Fort Wayne, Indiana, passed away on November 1, 2026, in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Born March 4, 1962, in Toledo, Ohio, Jules lived a life marked by steady integrity and a generous, kind spirit that was felt most deeply by those closest to him.
Jules graduated from Wayne High School with the Class of 1981. He found joy in the worlds of imagination and artistry—enjoying DnD, painting, Star Trek, and anime—and he carried that same sense of warmth and sincerity into everyday life. Above all, Jules will be remembered as a loving father, boyfriend, and son, someone whose honesty and good heart shaped the way he cared for others.
Survivors include his daughter, Jessica M. Sliger-Mettert of Fort Wayne, Indiana; his girlfriend, Kim A. Sliger of Fort Wayne, Indiana; and his mother, Jocey Gal Mettert-Quickery of Churubusco, Indiana.
