It is with profound sorrow that we announce the passing of Donald (Don/Rick) Jones, who left this world on November 2, 2025, at the age of 66.
Born on November 21st, 1958, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Donald devoted his life to hard work, family, and the simple joys that made him who he was.
As a master electrician, he took great pride in his craft-his hands built, repaired, and lit up more than homes; they shaped a legacy of dedication, precision, and integrity.
Donald had a lifelong love for cars, spending countless hours under the hood. If something was wrong, he knew how to fix it. He enjoyed car shows, admiring classic car designs, and sharing stories about vehicles he has owned.
His love for animals was just as strong. He loved cats mostly and enjoyed feeding the squirrels and birds every morning. From family pets to outside critters, if they came around Donald, they were spoiled. Those who knew him will remember his patience, his warm smile, and his unwavering willingness to help anyone who needed it. He had a way of making people feel seen, cared for, and loved-qualities that will live on through the many lives he touched.
He is survived by his sons: Scott Jones, Brian Bishop, preceded in death his brother Robert Jones, father Donald Jones, mother Marlyn Burgert.
His sons, family, and friends will forever cherish his memory and the lessons he taught by example: to work hard, love deeply, and never lose sight of the things that bring joy. To send flowers to the family or plant a tree in memory of Donald, please visit our floral store.
