Candy L. Jones' Obituary
Candace L. “Candy” Jones, 68, of Syracuse, passed away Tuesday, September 22, 2020 at home with her family by her side after a long illness.
Born in Rome, NY, she was predeceased by her parents, Jean and Richard Davies and brothers, Gary and Rick Jones. Candy is survived by her lifetime friend, Mary Rosser; sister-in-law, Anne Healy Jones; nieces and nephews, Allison Jones (Toler), Garrett Jones, Ryan Jones, Danny Jones, and Kally Jones, each of their spouses, as well as many grand-nieces and nephews. Lastly, she is survived by friends from near and far.
Candy loved traveling, photography, antiquing, and animals, particularly horses and dogs. Most of all, she loved being in the company of family and friends and bringing joy to others. Her infamous “thank you” was a lottery ticket to many whom she would cross paths with.
