Jewell Deloris Eddleman, 92, of Boerne passed away Thursday, July 16, 2020. She would be proud to know that many of her family came together to celebrate her life when she went to be with Jesus.
Jewell Deloris Halcomb was born December 11, 1927 in Mt. Vernon, TN to parents Ross Halcomb and Beulah Smith Halcomb. She married Alton Eddleman and they had eight children. She enjoyed camping trips with her young family, and as her children had families of their own, she continued to reach out to each of them to bring them together. Jewell was a one of a kind mother, grandmother and great-grandmother to her loving family.
Jewell played in and won many pool tournaments. She was a lifetime member of The Eagles, spending many hours volunteering for veterans and their families. She retired from Rohr after 35 years to move to Texas. There she worked at Walmart, continuing to brighten the day of every customer she helped with her quick wit. Jewell never met a stranger in her long, fruitful life.
Jewell is survived by her husband of 74 years, Alton Eddleman; her children, Danny Eddleman, Shirley McCarron, Erwin Eddleman, Irad Eddleman, Debbie Goldhagen, and Sandra Chandler; 17 grandchildren; and 17 great-grandchildren.
Jewell was preceded in death by her sons, Warner Eddleman and Butchy Eddleman; her mother, Beulah Smith Halcomb; her sisters, Rachel Dalton and Katey Moses; and her brother, Dobbin Halcomb.
