In Memory of Jessee Dewey

Katie Dewey Brown, with her father, Jessee Dewey

My father, Jessee Dewey, passed from this life on Saturday, September 6, 2003. He lost a valiant fight against lung cancer at the age of 64 and will be desperately missed by all those who knew and loved him.

Jessee was a Navy seaman on the USS Bennington, CVA 20 in 1956, and served in Vietnam from 1969-1973. Bell Helicopter, KC Aviation, and Gulfstream were all included in his work history.

His love for his family, patriotism and boating will be remembered fondly. He is survived by his wife, Lisa Dewey; siblings, C.O. Dewey, Nina Brasier, Beryl Dewey and Ernest Dewey; children, Lina Dewey, Erica Payne, Tom Dewey, Todd Dewey, Victor Dewey, Johnny Dewey and Katie Brown; grandchildren, Nichole and Zachary Payne, Anthony Dewey, Megan Dewey and Hunter Brown; and many other relatives and friends.
