Mrs. Joann Jones, age 52 of Tallassee, passed away on Saturday, November 16, 2024 at UAB Hospital. There are no public services planned at this time.
Mrs. Jones was born and raised around Tuckerton, New Jersey, attended Pinelands Regional High School, and had worked several jobs over her lifetime, but was primarily a stay home wife and mother. Mrs. Jones was an amazing Mother to her two daughters, and devoted grandmother to her grandson, Grayson. She enjoyed going thrift store shopping with her family, and knew how to find a great deal while also saving money. Mrs. Jones was an avid animal lover, especially to her cats and dogs. She was extremely passionate about her family, could be the voice of reason when she needed to be, and loved cooking and providing a nice meal for her family. Even though she was not able to visit New Jersey as often as she liked, her last longing memory was visiting the Barnegat New Jersey Lighthouse. Mrs. Jones also loved spending time at the pool, going to the beach, and just spending time with her family.
