She had professed faith in Christ as her Savior at an early age and was raised in the Muldraugh Hill Baptist Church in Marion County.  She later joined the Lowell Avenue Baptist Church in Campbellsville where she was a member until her death and was very active in many ministries of the church. One of her greatest joys for over 40 years was singing in the choir. As a long-time member of Lowell Avenue, she was one of the writers of the history of the church for its’ 35th year anniversary in 1990.

As a young teenager in the early 1950’s, she was involved in country music with her brother as a singer and guitarist in his band and played many popular music venues in central KY.  Her love for music and contacts in the music industry led to a contract with Tree Publishing Co. in Nashville, TN for several years as a songwriter.  Although never formally trained in music, she had a great ear for it, enabling her to play piano by ear.

 

Jewel was a loving mother and housewife and worked alongside her husband as the bookkeeper and secretary for his auto repair and golf cart business. She worked for about 5-6 years as a receptionist and clerk in the radiology department of Taylor County Hospital, a job she thoroughly enjoyed, until no longer able due to health issues.

MANUEL GUTIERREZ, JR, 53, GREEN COUNTY, KY

 

Manuel “Junior” Gutierrez, Jr., 53, of Green County, KY was born on March 14, 1969 and passed away peacefully on Sunday, July 31, 2022 surrounded by his wife and kids.

 

Junior was special to so many people and we wish for everyone to remember him as you’ve always known him…happy, sociable, friendly…someone who would talk to anyone and everyone, he would give the shirt off his back or his last $5 to help anyone. He is loved by so many and was the best husband, father, and PaPa we could’ve ever asked for and we are so grateful for the time we had with him, even if it was too short.  

 

Junior also helped care for so many other kids during his life, taking them in and helping with whatever they may need, and all of our “extras” will miss him and remember him as well. He was stubborn as a mule, but would fight for any one of our kids, and they all know who they are. He loved Star Wars, Fast & Furious, DIY shows, anything Marvel, and anything to do with cars. He could fix about anything, a jack of all trades, and was always there when someone needed a listening ear. His memory stays with us all forever and his presence a constant reminder to live life to the fullest and never take a single day for granted. He knew he was loved and he loved so many.

 

SURVIVORS:

His loving wife: Krissy Gutierrez

6 kids: Manuel Gutierrez, III, Gabe Gutierrez, Laura May Gutierrez, Logan Brown, Gracie Miller, and Belle Brown
