Maude Mary Jones
July 20, 1943 – December 29, 2024
It is with truly broken hearts that we announce the passing of Maude Mary Jones, aged 81, of Whitby, Ontario, on December 29, 2024. Maude passed away peacefully at The Village of Taunton Mills, surrounded by her close family. She had resided there for the past two and a half years, cherished by all who knew her.
Predeceased by her parents, Bernard and Cecilia Kenney of Conche, Newfoundland, Maude is survived by her loving husband of over 60 years, Leonard Jones. She was the devoted mother of Wayne (Karen), Darren, Leonard (Lori), Kenneth (Crystal), and Eugene (Belinda). Her grandchildren – Arthur, Katie, MaKayla, Michael, Tyler, Daniel, Beckie, Mich, KJ, Billy, Victoria, and Vanessa – and her great-grandchildren – Elijah, Dawson, Skyler, Fayth, Zoey, Avery, Hunter, Hayden, Phoenix, Ela, Atlas, and Leo – will dearly miss her love and presence.
Maude’s heart of gold and dedication to family will forever be remembered. Known for her love of Bingo, she was an active part of the Taunton Mills community, contributing to the residence committee and brightening the lives of those around her. Her life’s journey took her from Newfoundland to Ontario, always surrounded by the love of family and friends.
The family extends their gratitude to the staff at The Village of Taunton Mills for their compassionate care. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Maude’s memory to the Alzheimer Society of Canada.
