In loving memory of Rick Jones, age 63, passed away on Sunday, May 24, 2020 after a courageous battle with lung cancer. He was born April 23, 1957 in Campbell River, British Columbia, to Eric and Wilma Jones. He was one of eight children – four girls and four boys and he is predeceased by his parents and brother, Dan. Rick was a courageous man and overcame great adversity following being critically injured in a car accident in 1980. Despite those challenges, Rick lived life to the fullest through simple pleasures; savoring good food, listening to great music, enjoying time on his patio and reading books that quenched his thirst for knowledge and deep thinking. Above all, Rick’s greatest joy was being a father to his son, Graydon. There will be no service at his request. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to the Canadian Cancer Society in his name.
“The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, nor to worry about the future, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly.” - Buddha
