Jeannie "Italian" Jones

October 21, 1935 — June 23, 2015

Jeannie "Italian" Jones, 79, of Hamilton, Montana, passed away Tuesday, June 23, 2015 at The Marcus-Daly Hospice and Palliative Care Center. She was born October 21, 1935 to Jack and Alma Noel in Helena, Montana.
She graduated from Helena High School in 1954 and on July 1, 1956, married Wayne Jones from Missoula, Montana. Their first daughter, Leslie, was born the following April. They moved to California when Wayne was relocated by the Navy, where their second daughter, Shawn, was born in 1959.
Jeannie spent her life as the wife of a Navy SEAL devoted to her husband and daughters, demonstrating the resiliency and strength which became her hallmark through deployments too numerous to mention. As her daughters got older, she began to work outside the home, and ultimately alongside her husband when he retired from the Navy and pursued his dream of becoming a PGA golf pro. Recent years found them enjoying their grandchildren, travelling to various Shriner events and activities, and spending time with their many beloved friends in both Montana and California.
Jeannie loved family most, and is survived by her husband, Wayne; daughters Leslie and Shawn; six grandchildren, two great grandchildren and two sisters.
Jeannie will be remembered as kind and caring, strong and determined, and passionate in all aspects of her life. The family suggests in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the Bitterroot Shrine Club at 233 Carriage Road, Hamilton, Montana 59840.
