Katherine “Susie” Jones, of Waco passed away peacefully on Friday, October 23, 2015, at Regent Care. Services will be at 2:00 p.m., Monday, October 26, with visitation preceding at 1:00 p.m., at Pecan Grove Funeral Home, 3124 Robinson Drive, Waco.
Katherine was born July 22, 1928, to Frank and Allie Kemp. On June 5, 1952 she married William Jones in Marlin. During their 63 years of marriage they proudly raised seven children. In 1971 her husband retired with 30 years of military service and from then on they were actively involved in the lives of their grandchildren and great- grandchildren.
Gardening and quilting for her family brought her great joy for many years as the fruits of her labor that still live on. At each gathering you will inevitably hear “do you still have your quilt meme made”?
Preceding her in death were one son, Donald Mahan, one daughter, Linda Campbell and two grandsons, Donald Wayne Campbell and Trinity Jason Weaver.
Survivors include husband William Jones; two sons, Bill Jones and wife Angela, and John Jones; three daughters, Karen Weaver and husband Jackie, Laurie Brannen and husband Randy, and Mary Brown and husband Ken.
She was also the proud “meme” to 19 grandchildren, 26 great- grandchildren and 3 great- great- grandchildren.
The family would like to thank Bluebonnet Home Care and Hospice, and Regent Care Center of Woodway, for their wonderful care of mom.
