Evelyn Delayne Jerome Obituary (1932 - 2020)

Deceased 7/8/20, at Beehive Home, Draper UT On July 8th we lost our beloved mother Evelyn-Delayne Jerome. Evelyn, “Dee” as she was called, was born in Alliance Ohio, on February 23, 1932, her parents were Edgar & Zeda Haupt. Dee was married to the love of her life, Pat Jerome when she was just 18 years old, they were married for 62 years! She was always a devoted mother to her four boys who kept her very busy. After the boys grew up, she began working with Pat at their personnel agency, and assisting with their income properties in San Diego. One of the many unique things about this great woman was her ability to converse with anybody. Friends have made comments to us that she was so sweet and could talk to them about everything. Dee and Pat were also world travelers enjoying forty-two cruises during their years together, just amazing. Cruising was always their favorite thing to do together. Dee will be interred with Pat at the Southern Nevada Military Cemetery in Boulder City, Nevada. Due to the current virus situation, we will not have a ceremony. Dee is survived by her four sons, Chris, Greg, Vic and Max, their children, as well as her two sisters, LaVonne Porter, Marlene Bromley, and their children. The Jerome family will be forever indebted to Beehive Home of Draper and their wonderful staff who provided safety, love, compassion, and a great deal of care for Dee in her last years of life. We love them all!
