Written by Jewell's mother ,"Ada Mae " in her baby book, black hair and eyes, her hair grew away down on her cheek and hair on her ears also, had black hair on her back. They lived in a little red house in Drain Oregon. She was named Jewell by her father Andrew Chilton Redifer, and Maxine by her Uncle Jack Hartman while he was stationed at Honnigan, Germany, 75th Co. 6th Regt, U.S. M.C.- A.E.F. Army Occupation. Also written in her baby book was: " Climbed on chair, then on table and mixed mustard, honey, sugar, salt and pepper, then tried to eat it, put it in her hair and all over the table cloth, 15 months old." Her first trip was to Waldport Oregon over the Alsea Mountain Road at age 5 months. Trip was from Sept 1st -12th 1919.
She loved the ocean more then anyone I know, she was her happiest when she was at the beach house with Marvene, Susie and the kids. They spent a summer at Haystack Rock /Heceta Beach in the 1970's. She could spend hours just sitting and watching the ocean, never saying a word, just watching, I know as I have been with her when we both enjoyed our last trip to the coast together, if I had known we would have spent more time there.

"Oregon Hills"
Rugged and bold, but friendly
Those hills, pine-clad, sublime; immortalize the "powers that be" Belong to space and time,
Have little part in seasons , Nor herds, nor grass the while
But just to keep in reason, They borrow springs sweet smile
They speak in solid crystal truth Of things we cannot know
Eternal age - eternal youth, While faces come and go
Silent, immovable, content, Peace loiters, shelters there
They have no need of effort spent, In song or tears or prayer
We ask only but to admire, And for those solemn hills
That lift us, soothe us, and inspire to things higher, "For Jewell"

I didn't write very much about my mother, it is still too difficult today after all the years, what can I say I loved her deeply and I will never get over losing her, it changed me, not in any way that anyone could see, it was all inside on how I viewed people, events and our time on earth. I come here each day and visit, this is the greatest source of comfort for me. Please hold my Jimmy close until I see you both one day.
I love you and Jimmy so very much

There are people that are so dishonest that they ruin everything beautiful for others, therefore most of my family pictures will no longer be posted on these memorials.
A person on Ancestry.com stole my mother's pictures and added to their family tree, just because she was married (2nd )to his Aunt's husband's brother, in other words (No relation )
Included in the photo was my baby son, he refused to remove my family photo and then because he is a coward he made his tree private !
