October 14th, 1956 - December 2nd, 2023

David was born to Leona and Carl Jones on October 14, 1956. He was a dedicated, reliable and supportive man who always strived to help others around him. Whether that was coaching the kids down at the ball park or fixing vehicles in the driveway on a sunny Saturday afternoon. He loved his hockey, happily suited up in his goalie equipment and playing at the Fergus arena. He was well loved by family and the community.

After a long fight with cancer, David passed away at home on December 2, 2023. He will be deeply missed by his wife Mary, his three daughters Michelle (Jim) Belonzo, Angela (Brandon) Breen, Melissa Jones; and most importantly, his beloved granddaughter Lily. He is survived by his mother Leona, father-in-law Norman Walters and his three siblings: Jim (Cathy) Jones, Laurie (Rob) Hansplant, and Christine Hagerman. He is now at rest with his father Carl and two mother-in-laws, Lillian and Barb.

An open service will be held at Giddy funeral home in Fergus at 11:00 AM with a reception to follow.

A private internment will be at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to the Canadian Cancer Society in his memory.
