August 7, 1941 – February 12, 2026
Hamilton – Born to Melvin and Elizabeth Fassio in Price, UT and raised in Missoula, MT, Jean lived every day like the gardens she raised: hardworking, generous, always giving all she could. Together with Phillip and her boys she helped build the dairy farm in Victor MT that became the backbone of this family. Raising four boys and their friends on home-grown vegetables, old dairy cows and sheer grit, while loving every deserving soul who walked through her door.
Jean passed peacefully at Marcus Daly Memorial Hospital—eighty-four years of living and loving—with her sons, family and grandchildren gathered around, just what she always wanted.
Survived by her four sons, all Lewis and all still breathing fire: David Lewis and wife Polly (children Amanda, Drew, Chris, Austin); Rodney Lewis and wife Kimber (children Ashley, Marissa); Randy Lewis and wife Jennifer (children Katelyn, Randy Junior, Ryan); Rick Lewis and wife Erica (children Emalie, Mitch); 20 glorious great grandchildren; brothers, Melvin Fassio (son Tony), Bob Parrish; sisters, Susan Klein, Lynne Fassio.
She left behind no strangers—just family, some dirt under her nails, and the quiet pride of a woman who fed and raised us boys, our kin and then some. Condolences and memories may be shared with the family at www.whitesittfuneralhome.com.
