Timothy R. Jones

Timothy Roscoe Jones, age 62, of Garnett, Kansas, passed away on Thursday, June 9, 2022, at his home.

He was born July 17, 1959, in Garnett, Kansas, the son of Roscoe Jones and Beverly (Teter) Jones Nobles. Tim graduated from Garnett High School with the Class of 1977.

As a young boy, he started working at the age of 10 for the neighbors. He began working at the age of 17 at Steuber Construction until the closed down, then began at Beachner Construction in 2007, as a Certified Crane Operator and bridge foreman. Tim helped Frank and Billy Graham on the weekends for over 20 years. He continued working until two weeks ago.

He enjoyed being outside, cutting wood, mushroom hunting, fishing, deer hunting and loved his beloved dog, Bertha. Family was everything to him, but his greatest joy was his grandchildren.
