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.

In addition to her mother, Charlotte Rogers, she was preceded in death by her daughter, Tiffany Jones; bonus daughter, Sarah Brown; brother Rodney Killian; grandparents, William and Elaine Rogers, and Lee and Gladys Killian; great-grandparents, Virgil and Kate Rogers; brothers-in-law, Duncan Jones and Jeffrey Jones; nephew, Eric Jones; and god-son, Dylan Green.

Left to cherish the many memories include her beloved husband of 32 years, Jessie Jones; children, Jessica (Jake) Brown, and Christopher (Kayla) Jones; bonus children, Lauren (Mark) Brown, Nicholas Brown, and Will Vaughn; grandchildren, Dallas Jones, Blayne Brown, Coy Brown, and Olivia Morse; bonus grandsons, Tucker Brown, Ty Brown, and Warren Brown; siblings, Brandy (Chad) Anders, Marsha (Patrick) Smith, Jody (Tammy) Killian, Mark Killian, Brian (Stephanie) Killian, and James (Tracy) Lundy.

A Celebration of Life service will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Tuesday, November 7, 2023, in the chapel of Higgins Funeral Home, with Pastor Blake Wilcox and Pastor Carl Haulk officiating.  Interment will follow at Conasauga Cemetery, with Christopher Jones, Barry Jones, Joseph Gaskill, Josh Gaskill, Will Vaughn, and Patrick Smith serving as pallbearers.

Family and friends will gather from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Tuesday, prior to the service at the funeral home.
