Nettie Bamburg Jones:

Nettie was born on January 24, 1926 to a large working family of 14 siblings. She married “Dutch” Jones on April 8, 1950 and they began their life together as farmers on the Ouachita River.

Nettie loved her family, especially her grandchildren. Her passion was her home, yard, and the farm. She adorned her home with one of her hobbies, beautiful china paintings. Her yard was filled with another love of hers, flowering plants, roses, day lilies, and her prized camellias. She had around 80 camellias and could name the variety of each. She loved to work in her yard and ride her mower around the place looking at her plants. She tried to instill this love in her grandchildren by giving them a “spoon” to dig in the yard. This passion extended to the farm. She loved driving through the fields and sown along the river bank to the lake where she had a special place. Nettie always welcomed visitors with a smile and a pot of coffee. Through all her activities and passion for outdoors, she carried a love for Jesus in her heart.

Nettie is preceded in death by her husband of 50 years, “Dutch” Jones; granddaughter, Mary Jones; 5 brothers; and 6 sisters.

Survivors include her children, Wiley Jones and wife Karen, Wendell Jones and wife Dianne, Cynthia Osborne and husband Gary, Allison “Casey” Coleman and husband Michael; 15 grandchildren;10 great-grandchildren; sister, Reca Jones; brothers, Johnny and Roland Bamburg; and a host of other family members and friends.

Pallbearers will be grandsons and grandsons-in-laws: Gary Osborne, Jr., Jeffery Osborne, Dusty Jones, David Coleman, Andrew Coleman, Heath Osbon, and Sean Chenoweth. Honorary Pallbearers will be John Jones and Kevin Jones.
