Susan Diane Jones, 68 was born in Pittsburgh, Kansas on October 4, 1952.  She was the daughter of Lawrence C. and Evelyn Elizabeth (Carpenter) Jones.  Susan departed this life November 20, 2020 at Golden Valley Hospital in Clinton, Missouri.

Throughout her life she was dedicated member at the First Baptist Church in Appleton City and then also at the First Baptist Church of Clinton, where she always enjoyed participating in children's Christmas ministry.  One of her favorite hobbies was camping with her parents in Branson and going to the many shows.  Susan loved spending time with her nieces and nephews, especially on their annual camping trip to Pomme de Terre Lake. She was someone who loved her family and friends, and she will be deeply missed.

Preceding Susan in death were her parents, Lawrence C. and Evelyn Elizabeth (Carpenter) Jones; and one great-nephew, Conner Tenholder.

Survivors include Linda (Paul) Tenholder; nieces and nephews: Greg (Shirley) Tenholder, Connie (Jody) Rapp, Matt (Amanda) Tenholder, and Lori Burch; along with many extended family members and dear friends.
