Lisa Denise Jones

She was the manager of the Spring Garden Restaurant for several years. Lisa was a natural born leader, but will be remembered most of all by what she did with the “dash between her dates”.

She was preceded in death by her mother Carol (nee Perkins) Cox; her great-uncle Edward Perkins; her nephew Ray “Dino” Villier; her great-aunt Evelyn “Nanny” Hatfield; grandmother Clara Grace (nee Perkins) Price; grandfather Carroll Floyd Price; grandmother Velma Cox; and grandfather Charles Cox II.

She is survived by her father Charles Cox III; sons Matthew (Nicole) Smith of Collinsville, Illinois and Charles Smith of St. Louis, Missouri; daughter Amy (Matthew) Mordis of Fairmont City, Illinois; grandchildren Talon Grogan, Laney Smith, and Cohen Smith; her special friend Charles “Hobo” Adair of Collinsville (in case you didn’t know), Charlene Best of Collinsville, who has been like a daughter, and seemingly countless friends, family, and loved ones.
