October 8, 1975 - February 11, 2023
Christopher (Chris) Lee Jones entered the gates of Heaven on February 10, 2023, with his son by his bedside at Henry Ford Jackson Hospital in Jackson, Michigan. Chris was born on October 8, 1975, in Nashville, Tennessee to Howard Jones & Robin Decker. He lived most of his life between Hillsdale, Michigan and Prescott, Arkansas.
Chris’ beloved job before becoming disabled, was supervisor of Rakers Acres (greenhouses) in Litchfield, Michigan. Chris loved plants and flowers and his home was always surrounded with his masterpieces. He was known to have a “green thumb." Previously, he was a business owner in Nevada County of Clutter Busters Lawncare & Landscaping.
Chris enjoyed the outdoors and camping and fishing were his passions. He was the Cub Master for Pack 81 in Prescott as well as a den leader in 2012 and 2013. He was involved with numerous campouts, fundraisers, and community service projects during his tenure. He was a dedicated Curley Wolves fan and loved watching college and NFL football with his son. Chris also enjoyed playing the keyboard, which he played by ear and would play for family & friends and occasionally at church. His biggest passion was being a daddy. He was so proud of his son and everyone knew it.
He will be missed deeply by friends and family, but we rest knowing he is now with our Savior in Heaven.
