EAST FALMOUTH – Judith Ann Grace Jones, 71, died unexpectedly at her East Falmouth home on March 1, 2014.
Born in North Dighton, she was the daughter of the late Hiram G. and Natalie Yvonne (Delano) Jones.
Raised and educated in Taunton, she was a 1960 graduate of Taunton High School.
A retired head custodian, Mrs. Jones was employed by the Falmouth School Department for over fifteen years before retiring in 2003.
In her spare time, she enjoyed crafts and was an active volunteer, serving both the Falmouth senior community, and school department.
Survivors include a daughter, Robin Desrosiers of Lunenburg, MA; two brothers, Richard H. Jones and his wife Julie of Las Vegas and Russell A. Jones and his wife Jeanne of Taunton; a sister, Barbara L. O’Leary and her husband Paul of Taunton; grandchildren, Ryanmarie Connors and her husband Jeffrey Connors, and Jessica Davis; and several great grandchildren, nieces and nephews.
She is also survived by a community of friends in Falmouth, who she considered a part of her family.
Judy was predeceased by her son, the late Kevin J. Grace; and her brother, the late Scott G. Jones.
A Memorial Visitation will be held at the Silva Funeral Home, 80 Broadway, Taunton on Friday, March 7th from 4 to 6 p.m.
Relatives and friends are invited to attend.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to a charity of one’s choice, or instead, you could just do a good deed.
Deliver a meal to a shut-in, take a friend who doesn’t drive to a doctor’s appointment, remember someone in need with a small gift - or just make someone laugh.
This is what we think Judy would request, instead of flowers.
