Our community wishes to extend their sympathy to the family of Jolene Jewel Carpenter of Rhode Island formerly of Hume. Jolene attended Hume School and would have been a member of the graduating class of 1975 but moved a year or two before that. She passed away on February 26. She was the daughter of Ralph and Margaret Holmes Jewel. She was preceded in death by her parents, two brothers John Porter and Russell Porter. She is survived by her husband John Crowley, Brother Leroy Porter, Sister Kimberly Nevius and sister-in-law Dotti Porter. There will be a private burial in the Notre Dame Cemetery in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. In 2015 Jolene and her husband John came back and visited family and friends and attended the 40th class reunion of the class of 1975.
