Ernest Wright Jones, born Feb. 26,1955, went to be with our Lord and his dog Tucker on Thursday, May 17, 2018, in his home peacefully in his sleep, after battling cancer for three years.

He was born in American Falls, lived in Rockland and then Neeley, ID, with his parents Joe and Patricia Jones and his brothers and sisters.
