Shepherd Clarke Jones Obituary (2026 - 2026)

Shepherd Clarke Jones, the beloved infant son of Colton and Kayley Jones, was born into the arms of our Lord and Savior on April 17, 2026. Though his time on this earth was brief, Shepherd’s life has already made an everlasting impact. Shepherd's life, though fleeting, has been a testimony to the incredible capacity of the human heart to love, to grieve, and, above all, to cherish the briefest moments of joy and wonder. He was deeply loved from the very beginning and will forever remain a precious part of his family’s hearts. In the quiet moments and in the days ahead, his memory will continue to be carried with a love that time cannot diminish. Shepherd is lovingly survived by his parents, Colton and Kayley Jones; his brother and sister, Archibald Clarke Jones and Mamie Lou Jones; his grandparents, Reginald and Debbie Jones, Jody and Ginger Emerson, and Kristi Hart and Simon Morin; along with a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, and extended family who will forever cherish his memory. A private family service will be held at a later date. "Before we could hold you in our arms, we held you in our hearts—and now you rest in the arms of Jesus." You are invited to visit Shepherd’s memorial page to leave condolences and offer words of comfort to the family. We kindly asks that you keep Colton, Kayley, and their loved ones in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Ronk Funeral Home is honored to serve the family of Shepherd Clarke Jones.
