Douglas Jones - Online Memorial Website

When I pass, speak freely of my shortcomings and my flaws. Learn from them, for I'll have no ego to injure. Aaron McGruder


This memorial website was created to remember my dearest Douglas Jones who was born in United States on July 31, 1962 and passed away quietly and peacefully on August 7, 2021. You will live forever in our memories and hearts.

I met Doug on AmericaOnline.  He was funny, kind, sweet, crazy, and I fell in love with him very quickly.

Doug had a love of music and sports.  He especially loved 70's funk bands.  And he loved baseball and would always keep up with the Chicago Cubs, whether it was on TV or online, he was watching it.  He always said he wanted to go to Chicago to see Wrigley field just once.

Doug had a love of family.  I was his world and he was mine.  After me came his mama, then our granddaughter Zelda.  She was his partner in crime.  He loved that little girl and would always make time for her.  He loved his mom and called her everyday just to see how she was.  He had 3 sisters that he loved as well.  Tammy, Terry and Kelly.  Tammy passed away a few years ago.  As children they were close, but in adulthood they had drifted apart but were finding each other.  

Doug had the best sense of humor and would make me laugh every day.  He could tell the best stories and I'd be rolling on the floor laughing.  That was one of the things I loved most about him. I loved his zest for life, his kindness, gentleness, and his love for me.  I love him with my whole heart, soul, and beimg

Doug is survived by me, Robin Jones.  I am his wife of 22 years.  He is also survived by his mother Virginia Jones of Gilmer, his stepsons Ron Wiiliams of Gaylord,  MI, and Rob Williams of Fort Reily, KS.  He is also survived by his granddaughter Zelda Jones.  

I don't know how I am going to live without him.  He passed away quietly and suddenly after suffering a major stroke.  I held him as he slipped away peacefully.  I miss him, I miss the sound of his voice but what I miss most, is the hugs and kisses he gave me everyday after he told me he loves me.
