Lola Jones, 64, of Lincoln, NE passed away on February 2, 2024, at Lincoln.

Lola was born February 7, 1959, at Mayville, ND to Lawrence and Lorraine (Putman) Boldt. She was raised in California.

On March 6, 1980, Lola married Rick Jones. The couple made their home in California before moving the family to Madrid, NE in 1990.

Lola was a nurse at Chase County Community Hospital before becoming the Hospital Administrator. She and Rick moved to Sandpoint, ID in 2013, where she continued working in the nursing field. She loved living in the mountains, where she could kayak, hike and enjoy the outdoors. She returned to Nebraska in 2022 to be closer to her daughters and grandkids. She lived at Lake McConaughy for a year before moving to Lincoln as her health declined. Her greatest joy in life was spending time with her grandchildren.

Lola was preceded in death by her parents, Lawrence and Lorraine, husband, Rick, and her brother, Leland.

Survivors include her daughters Olena (Ryan) Martin, Desiree' (Shaun) Poppe of Ogallala, son, Jake Jones of Coeur D Alene, Idaho, and grandchildren, Gabriel, Brock, Bronson, Charlie, and Nyah.
