Gertie Lee Jewell

Gertie Jewell peacefully passed away surrounded by her family on July 7, 2020. She was preceded in death by her husband of 38 years, Everett G. Jewell. Gertie is survived by her son Shannon L. Jewell of Denver, and two granddaughters, Lucinda Radlauer and Shawna Rodarte, along with 5 great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandchild.

Gertie was born in Crittenden Kentucky on her family’s farm and was one of 12 siblings. In 1953 she and her husband relocated their family to Denver, Colorado, where they called home.

Gertie was known for her impeccable sense of style, her love of all things related to gardening, her great sense of humor, but above all else, she loved her family. Gertie will undoubtedly be missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing and loving her, but the family takes solace in the fact that she is resting in the arms of the Lord.
