DONALD DELONIS DEW

On Aug. 21, 2020, Donald Delonis Dew, 81, Andersonville, went to the place that Jesus had been preparing for him.

Donald leaves a legacy of love and service to his Lord, his family, and his friends. Jesus was the center of his life and his family rejoices that he is now in His presence. We give thanks to the Lord for the gracious way that He brought Donald home easily and peacefully.

He waits in Heaven for: His wife of 61 years, Judy Miller Dew; his sons and their wives, Jeff and Ramona of Knoxville, Joel and Kendra of Powell, Greg and Kelly of Mt. Juliet, and Kevin of Chattanooga.

He also leaves behind: 10 grandchildren, Hannah Phillips (Derek), Mary Elizabeth, Katlyn Smith (Max), Kelsey Stepp (Clark), Sam, Maddie, Miller, Tate, Brooke, and Reece; three great-grandchildren, Judson, Juliana, and Wyatt; as well as brother, James (Juanita); and sisters-in-law, Betty Disney and Lorene Dew.

The family received friends at the Norris First Baptist Church from 10 a.m. – noon, Tuesday, Aug. 25, 2020, with the funeral service following at noon.

His graveside service followed at the Norris Memorial Gardens.

In lieu of flowers please send donations to Norris First Baptist Church or St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital.
