Dr. Marvin George Jumes M.D., passed away peacefully
Thursday, January 18, 2018. He was born in Sheboygan on September 21, 1933 to
the late George and Bessie (Collias) Jumes.
Marvin graduated from Sheboygan Central High School, earned his
bachelor’s degree and Doctor of Medicine from the University of Wisconsin
Madison.
He served in the U.S. Air Force as Chief of Anesthesiology
at Fairchild AFB in Spokane, WA. After
practicing in Bend, OR, he returned to his hometown joining the staffs of
Sheboygan Memorial and St. Nicholas hospitals in 1965. Marvin retired in 1998 after 37 years of
Anesthesia practice.
As an outdoors man, he enjoyed riding his tractors, caring
for his 40,000 trees, splitting, and stacking wood. A true dog lover, his loyal companions were
always at his side. Marv had varied
interests including flying his Bonanza A36, playing tennis and racketball,
skiing, biking, and running. One of his
favorite comments was “Walking is good” no matter how far away we parked! Door County and Hilton Head Island S.C. were
favorite vacation destinations for Marv and Pat.
Survivors include his loving wife Patricia, children; George
(Jane) Jumes, Paul (Jenni) Jumes, Deborah Jumes, Elaine Jumes, Elizabeth (John
Reid), and Gregory (Jennifer) Goedde.
Grandchildren; Christopher, Andrea, David, Greg, Elise, Ana, Illiana,
Meghan, and Erin Jumes, Katherine, William, and Stuart Reid, Stephanie and
Samantha Goedde, and three great-grandchildren, brother Louis (Mary) Jumes, a
special niece Jessica and nephews Charles and Michael Jumes.
Preceding him in death were his parents George and Bessie
Jumes, younger brother Charles and mother-in-law Stephani Schmidt.
He will dearly be missed and always be remembered as a
conservative man, never afraid to express his opinion, or give advice. Those words of wisdom will continue to guide
his children and grandchildren….always.
Friends and family will join in a Memorial Gathering at
Sheboygan Yacht Club on Friday, February 16
th
at 1:00 PM. Any memorials may be made in his honor to
