THOMAS JONES Thomas Garfield Jones, 70, of Las Vegas passed away Thursday, July 21, 2016 from a prolonged battle with cancer. He was born on June 2, 1946 in Salt Lake City. He was preceded in death by his parents, Garfield and Dorreen Jones; as well as his brothers, Sann Jones and Fredrick Jones. He is survived by his loving wife, of 33 years, Jackie; sons, Jason Jones (Jamie) of West Valley City, Utah and Kevin Jones (Shelly) of Taylorsville, Utah; step-children Tim Thackston (Michelle), Kim LaMothe (Rick) and Jackie Kahele (Kekoa) all of Las Vegas; sisters, Sandra Thomas and Margie Jones, both of Las Vegas and brother, Ken Jones (Rosalie) of Aurora, Colo. He is also survived by 14 grandchildren; and 3 great-grandchildren; as well as many neices, nephews, aunts, uncles and cousins. He worked for Rebuplic Services in Las Vegas for 43 years and definitely gave new meaning to the words "worked hard for the money". He rarely, if ever, refused a favor asked of him if it was within his power to grant that favor, which could include anything from repairing cars for friends and family to babysitting his grandkids. Truly a "Jack of all Trades". He also served as Exalted Ruler at the North Las Vegas Elks Lodge 2353 in 1985-86. He will be missed dearly by family and friends alike. Memorial service will be 11 a.m. Friday, July 29, at Palm Mortuary-Cheyenne, 7400 W Cheyenne Ave. Refreshments served immediately following for those who would like to visit with the family.
