Ossie Jewell Davidson

Jewell was the kind of man who could make anyone laugh—sometimes with him and sometimes at him, but he didn’t mind either way. His quick wit and warm smile could brighten any room. He spent 40 wonderful years married to Teresa, who somehow put up with his jokes, and together they raised three boys: Kevin, Michael, and Jacob. His family was his world, and he loved nothing more than spending time with his kids and grandkids—Hunter, Abagail, Damien, Charlie Jewell, and Harley.

Jewell loved being outdoors, especially hunting, where he claimed he was the best shot in the family (although a few deer might disagree). He lived 70 years full of laughter, love, and stories too good to be true—but we all believed them anyway.

He will always be in our hearts and remembered every time we crack a joke or tell one of his tall tales.
