Gary Carlos Jones

Gary Carlos Jones, a special spirit and beautiful soul, passed peacefully in his sleep, November 19th, 2025.

He knew he was loved. He has always been an angel on Earth. 

Gary’s mission was complete in this life and we were lucky he was here with us as his companions. 

He loved to dance, sing along to musicals, swing at the park, and read cat magazines. He had a love of hats, cool jewelry and diet soda. 

He is survived by his loving Mother, Joy Christensen Jones, his siblings, Vicki, Janie, Bruce, Aaron, Julie, and Maria and their families. He was an amazing uncle to 29 nieces and nephews and an ever present constant source of love and hugs. He was preceded in death by his father Rod Jones and brother in law Harold. 

Gary attended Mesa Public schools and Graduated from Westwood High School in 2003. 

Gary served an LDS mission at Deseret Industries in Mesa, and participated in the Mesa Temple Easter pageant for several years.

He worked at the MARC center in Mesa for 20 years. 

He was happy and cozy in his own bed, and passed peacefully, due to severe sleep apnea.

We were so blessed to have him teach us patience, unconditional love and kindness to everyone. 

His Funeral will be Saturday November 29th, with a viewing at 9am and funeral at 10am at  933 E. Brown road, In Mesa, AZ.

Burial will take place in Pima, AZ later that day.
