July 28, 1929 – November 20, 2014
On November 20, 2014 Norma passed away in Las Vegas, Nevada after a short illness. She was born in Freeport, Ohio. Her family moved to Boulder City so her father could help construct what was then known as Hoover Dam. She met David, the love of her life and married in 1947. They moved to McGill, Nevada where they raised their 5 sons. Norma was a resident of McGill for 60+ years. She raised her boys there when McGill was a busy, bustling place to raise a family. She was an extremely loving and caring mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and great great-grandmother. Her love for her family was the heart of her life. She was fiercely independent, and everyone who met her became a friend for life. Norma was an avid animal lover, always taking in a stray to care for, enjoying every moment. Our love for Norma is matched only by the enormous amount of love she shared throughout her lifetime.
She is predeceased by her husband, David E. Jones, son, Kirk Jones, mother Viola Smith, and brother Leonard Clay. She leaves behind 4 sons; Mike Jones of Pocatello, ID, Kelly Jones of Flint, TX, Randy Jones of Las Vegas, NV and Lee Jones of Ely, NV. 16 grandchildren, 32 great-grandchildren, and 4 great-great grandchildren. She also leaves behind many friends she made during her 60+ yeas in McGill. There will be no memorial service at this time. A celebration of her life will be announced in the future so all may attend.
On behalf of my family, we extend our sincere condolences to Norma’s family..may they all be surrounded with peace and comfort at this difficult time, and may the many fun and fond memories they have of Norma carry them through each day. R.I. P. Norma…
My sincere Condolences to the Jones family she was a great lady
I was sorry to hear about your mom Norma. She was such a nice person and had a wonderful sense of humor. I remember bowling with your mom and dad many, many years ago. She used to say that she married Dave for his car and he married her for her figure and they lost them both. May the Lord bless your family during this most difficult time.
