Jones, Jeffery Gordon Roscoe 'Jeff'
May 1, 1957 - May 16, 2024
Jeff Jones passed away suddenly at the Owen Sound Hospital with family by his side on Thursday, May 16, 2024 at the age of 67.
Preceded in death by his loving parents Harold and Marie (nee Smith) Jones.
Jeff will be missed dearly by his beloved children Toni (Stephen) Aglia, Jason, Matthew (Jackie), and Richard; his beloved grandchildren Sophie, Emma, Vanessa, Ozias, and Neriah. Dear brother of Joyce Adams, Jo-Anne Flink and Jim (Lorna) Jones. He will be remembered fondly by his many nieces, nephews and cherished friends.
Jeff was born in Toronto on May 1, 1957. In the mid 60’s the family moved to Clarksburg when his father was posted to the Meaford Military Base. Jeff loved the area and land which contributed to him becoming a land surveyor at a young age. After completing his schooling, Jeff’s first surveying position was in Thunder Bay. This is where he met his wife and began building his family. Later he was given the opportunity to return with his family to the beautiful Beaver Valley area where he worked for many years surveying most of the southern Georgian Bay landscape.
Jeff loved nature so becoming a scout leader for his children was a joy he took on with great pride. He led scouts for many years; first in Thornbury then in Collingwood. Camping and hiking was always a passion he had, a passion he loved sharing; passing on his knowledge and respect for nature. His love of carpentry and building projects created memories that will forever be cherished.
He will be missed.
A private family service will take place this coming summer.
