1961-2015
Wendy Ann Jones, Beloved wife, mother & grandmother, passed gently into the loving arms of our Heavenly Father on Saturday April 18, 2015, after a valiant 7 year battle with cancer. She was born on August 16, 1961 to Lawrence Glenn Kirby and Shirley Ann Martinsen. On April 28, 1984 she married her best friend in the Salt Lake Temple. Together they had four wonderful children. Wendy’s greatest passion in life was her family. After being diagnosed with terminal cancer, she made the time to take each of her children on their own personal vacation, dedicated to their individual personalities. She diligently served her church and community, devoting much of her time in the service of others. When her health permitted, she was an active member of the Women’s Republican Club of Salt Lake. She helped to organize an annual Honor Event dinner dedicated to the wives and mothers of our service men abroad. Wendy also loved working in her flower garden, which was admired by many of her friends. She will be greatly missed by her family & friends here, as she is welcomed pain free by her parents & loved ones beyond the veil. She is survived by her husband David Jones, four children Benjamin (Amanda) Jones, Megan (Farris) Bukhatwa, Sarah Jones, Andrew Jones, & grandson Alexander Jones.
