IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Clara Sue
Jones
March 3, 1938 – February 25, 2020
Clara Sue Jones was born on March 3, 1938 with a twin to Vess and Louise Robertson and passed away from this life on Tuesday, February 25, 2020. She was 81 years old. She graduated from Aurora High School with the class of 1956.
Clara retired as Mid-America Dairymen Cheese Store Buyer and Supervisor for southwest Missouri. She never met a stranger. She was known for her sense of humor, always having a smile, and a deep love for family. Clara shared her love of God with so many.
She married Cleo "Buddy" Jones November 10, 1978, 41 years ago. She said she married him on his birthday, so he would never forget their anniversary. They shared a love for travel, baseball, country music, and spending time with family. She was always ready to travel with Buddy's country music band. She never missed her grandkids' sporting events; from golf to football to basketball to soccer. Even on the coldest nights, she would bundle up to watch Republic football games.
Clara fought a 27-year battle with cancer. She was not one to ever complain. She approached her illness with a positive attitude, strong support group and lots of prayers. Our Wonder Woman will be missed by all who knew and loved her.
She is survived by her husband, Cleo (Buddy) Jones; a son, Perry (Kim) Wolfinbarger; and a daughter, Sheri (Don) Duncan. Also surviving are grandchildren, Ben (Josie) Wolfinbarger, Bethany (Corey) Peterson and Cori (Jay) Cessna; twin sister, Alice Wagnon; sister, Kay Burton; Nephews, Mitch (Kathi) Wagnon, Jeff (Mary Francis) Wagnon, Ken (Debbie) Hendricks. Nieces Becky Robbins and Darlene (Pat) Rhodes. Also 10 great-grandchildren, 5 great-great grandchildren, many great-nieces and nephews and many friends.
She was preceded in death by her parents, a baby, Link Edward, two brothers, a sister and her first husband, Jack Wolfinbarger.
Funeral services will be held at 10:00 a.m. Saturday, February 29, 2020 in Gorman-Scharpf Funeral Home with Pastor Jamie Bilyeu presiding. Visitation will be held from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. Friday in the funeral Home. Burial will follow in Delaware Cemetery near Nixa, MO.
