Apart from a brief move to Lawton, Oklahoma Jewel and Bob would make the Tulsa area home as Bob spent a career working for Central Airlines. Travel was something that Jewel and Bob enjoyed. Some of their most memorable travel included overseas trips to: Greece, Rome and Turkey. While staying closer to home, they enjoyed taking their motor home south to Padre for the winters and also made several trips to Colorado, Florida and California.

Described as: kind, affectionate, quick-witted and a woman of faith, Jewel made a wonderful impression and impact on the lives of those she touched.
