JACQUELINE “JACKIE” JONES 1971 – 2025 It is with heavy hearts that we announce the sudden passing of Jacqueline Dawn Jones (Jackie Jones) at the age of 53 on Sunday, January 5, 2025.
Born on July 30th, 1971, in Lethbridge Alberta, beloved daughter of Patrick Drader and Donella Glynn. Alongside her 4 siblings, she grew up in Coalhurst Alberta where she made lifelong friends and played softball and basketball for the High School. She later moved to Lethbridge Alberta to pursue her own path.
She was blessed with her four children, Tomie and Carson Tomiyama (Jay Tomiyama) and Avery and Jaxson Jones with her loving husband, Dave Jones. Jackie was a devoted mother whose pride and joy were her children. She instilled values of kindness, compassion, and resilience and they are a beautiful reflection of the loving and dedicated parent she was.
Jackie and Dave’s love story started with an introduction from Jackie’s long-time friend and Dave’s sister Christy in 2007, and from that time on it was decided, they were the perfect match.
She worked hard and forged unbreakable bonds in all her endeavors. Most recently, Gentleman Three where she took pride in getting to know everyone who walked through the door. Jackie was a loyal friend and a pillar of strength in her community. Known for her generosity, charm, and sense of humor, she left an indelible mark on all who knew her.
Jackie’s untimely passing is mourned by her family, friends, and the community she enriched with her presence. She is now reunited with her parents, Donella Glynn and Patrick Drader, in eternal peace.
She is survived by her loving husband Dave Jones; children Tomie and Carson Tomiyama, Avery and Jaxson Jones; sisters Bobbi Cherpin (Kerry Cherpin), Christie Drader, Kim Dawson (Jamie Dawson), her brother Jason Drader (Jennifer Drader); her nieces and nephews who adored her, and her extended Jones Family.
