E. Jewel Maunula of Kamloops passed away on Monday, March 7, 2016 at the age of 77 years. She is survived by her loving husband Arnold, children Roy of Kamloops Sherry (David) of Kamloops, Shelly (Karina) of Nanaimo, and Shawn (Marnie) of Kamloops; grandchildren Micheal (Amanda), Devin, Claye, Haley, Vanessa, Jamie, Jordan, Tyra, and Caleb (Chelsea); great-grandchildren Abby, Charli and Cale; sister Daisy Houndle, and brother Ken (Trudy) Tattrie; and many other friends and relatives across Canada. She was predeceased by her parents Gladys and George Tattrie, brother Everet Tattrie, brothers in-law Doug, Neil, Donald, Frank, and Laurie, and sister in-law Elsie.
Jewel was born in Tatamagouche, Nova Scotia and raised in Nelson BC. She later moved to Kamloops, where she worked as a secretary. Jewel loved her family and her home was the gathering place for family and friends. Her love was returned and she will be sadly missed, but she had a strong faith and now she will be with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Jewel enjoyed camping, crocheting, baking and making chocolates at Christmas and Easter. She enjoyed life to the fullest and never stopped telling people she loved them.
As her husband, I never dreamed she would have such a massive stroke, and realized how much I love her and will miss her. All I can say is that the Lord in his wisdom has called another Angel home
