Laura Marie Jones transitioned to eternal rest on August 4, 2018 at 2:45 pm. Mom was baptized at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church Faith in San Antonio, Texas, many years ago.

Mom regularly attended Mass with our father Newton E. Jones, deceased. Mom was an avid reader and kept up on current events. Mom was a loving woman, wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend.

Mom was sweet, giving with a kindred spirit and dearly loved. Mom had been described as wise and humble. One of her favorite pastimes was reading, which she thoroughly enjoyed and encouraged her family to do.  Mom was family oriented and enjoyed having Sunday dinners and other events that allowed her to spend time with her family and friends.

Cherished memories of mom will remain in the hearts of her sons, Newton, Clive and Bill; daughters, Audrey and Laura. She will also remain in the hearts of her grandchildren, great grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
