Otis Ray Jones

On August the 25th, of 2021, the world lost the best man they never even knew. Otis Ray Jones, devoted husband, patriarch of a wonderful family, life-long fiddler, and deeply spiritual man of God, has gone on to clasp the hand of his maker. I see him in his Promised Land, fiddling eternity away in the Angelic orchestra, with a contagious smile that will light the vaults of Heaven until the end of time. He lived a great life, full of love, laughter, music, family, and friends. He was an honest man, never cussed, drank, or smoked. He said what he believed and you could believe he would do what he said. He never had a bad word for anyone, because his heart was so big, so full of love, patience, forgiveness, and joy. Faithful husband to his one true love, Patsy Ruth Jones, their marriage endured for 69 years, but their love will never end. Like the Rock of Gibraltar, he stood strong against the world, leading his life, and his family through the ever changing times. Unwavering in his faith he dedicated his life to God, his wife, his family, his job, his music, and fellowship. He will be deeply missed by those who were fortunate enough to be a part of his life.The world will never see his like again. He was without a doubt the best man I have ever known.
