Esther Jeanne Ferry

November 9, 1951 - September 7, 2014

In Loving Memory Esther "Jeanne" Ferry Esther “Jeanne” Ferry passed away peacefully Sept. 7, 2014 in Portland, OR. Her siblings, her sons and close friends gathered at her bedside to tell her goodbye. She was born November 9, 1951 to Duane Marion Ferry and Esther Jeanne Ellsworth Ferry in Spokane, WA. Jeanne was gifted musically and dramatically, singing and playing piano, and acting in plays in her younger years. She had a great sense of humor. She loved animals, especially her cats. Jeanne was known by friends to give a helping hand when she could to those in need, and her passing will leave a gap in many peoples’ hearts. During her life, Jeanne lived in Spokane County, Seldovia, Alaska, and in Newberg, Oregon. She had many careers, working at the Longhorn Restaurant in Spokane, at Kaiser Aluminum in Mead, in the Alaska fishing industry in Seldovia, as a meat cutter, a florist, and as a caregiver. Jeanne attended West Valley High School in Spokane and married her high school sweetheart, Rick Lewis. They had two sons, Rick Patrick and Daniel Christopher “Kit”. She was later married to the late John Chastain. Jeanne was preceded in death by her father and mother. She leaves behind her two sons, her grandsons TJ and Andrew Lewis, brothers Daniel Duane Ferry and Gerald Stephen Ferry (wife Teresa), and sister Leona “Nona” Marlene Groesbeck (husband Dick) along with many nephews and nieces. A special thanks to Rev. Norm Lawson for providing spiritual support to Jeanne and her family at her passing. There will be no memorial service at her request.
