About Marlin Willard Jones (“Willie”)

Marlin Willard Jones (“Willie”) was born on November 14, 1955, in Mesa, Arizona, and passed away on December 20, 2025, in Gilbert, Arizona, surrounded by family and love.

Willie was a hard worker who spent his life in the masonry field, taking great pride in his craft and the work of his hands. His strong work ethic, dependability, and commitment were evident in everything he did. He believed in honest work and doing the job right.

Devoted to his family, Willie shared 40 years of marriage with his beloved wife, Kimberly Jones. Together, they built a life rooted in love, perseverance, and dedication. Above all else, Willie valued those closest to him and was known for his quiet strength, deep loyalty, and genuine kindness.

Willie especially loved and cherished his grandchildren. His greatest joy was holding his grandbabies and playing with the toddlers, finding delight in their laughter and watching them grow. He appreciated life’s simple moments and meaningful conversations, living with integrity and humility.

Willie is survived by his five children and their spouses: Tyler, Brittani, Ryan, Tadd, and Alexa, along with his beloved grandchildren, all of whom will forever carry forward his memory and legacy. He was preceded in death by loved ones who welcomed him home.

A celebration of Willie’s life will be held with his immediate family.

He will be deeply missed and forever remembered.

    We sure loved Willie growing up in 6th ward together. Sending hugs to all of his family. My husband Gary graduated with him from Westwood in 1973. We saw Willie at the 50 year reunion and got a cute picture of him, Andy MacDonald and Gary. I would love to share it if Glen, Ivan or Brenda want a copy. Andy died not long after the photo. My father-in-law David Jones is also a cousin of your Dad Mel. Love the Jones family!
