Great grandma Jones (Cade's Grandma) lived a long long life. She was 86 years old when she passed away on May 28, 2016. She had her very first heart attack 22 years ago and has had many heart surgeries since. For 22 years now it has been Grandma Jones "last Christmas with us" :). Since she had so many health issues, I think everyone took advantage of the time spent with her because we never knew when her time would pass. However, she is one of the most determined, physically strong women I have ever known.
Grandma Jones' funeral was beautiful. Cade spoke and had so many lovely stories of the lives she touched during her years on earth. She dug a pool in her own backyard with her own hands so she could provide physical therapy for her daughter Cindy who had Polio. She always had pizza available at all the big family gatherings so her grandson Ehren would always have his favorite thing to eat. She was always looking out for the ONE. Grandma always treated strangers as family. She took everyone into her home and loved those who didn't feel loved. She left a great legacy to those who she left behind. We will miss seeing Grandma when we visit Prescott, but are happy she is not in pain anymore and now with our Heavenly Father. We love you, Grandma!
