Nancy Rebecca Jones, 51, of Benton, departed this life peacefully on November 3, 2023, at a local hospital surrounded by her loving family.
She was born on May 29, 1972, in Cleveland, Tennessee to Robert Killian and the late Charlotte Rogers. She was married to her loving husband for 32 years and was a member of the Welcome Valley Baptist Church. A loving wife, mother, grandmother, and friend, Ms. Nancy was loved by all who knew her and will be deeply missed. A few of her fondest memories include long mountain rides, camping, cooking, going to the park, and mostly spending time with all her grandchildren. She loved to sing and worship God and always would be found singing to her grandchildren. Always willing to help anyone, she did so with a smile and tremendous love from the heart.
