Thomas Clifford Jones, 92, passed away on Sunday, November 22, 2020. He was born July 8, 1928 in the Town of Nekimi to Clifford and Harriet Jones and was baptized and confirmed at First English Lutheran Church in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. He married Mary Louise Marohn on December 9, 1949 at Zion Lutheran Church in Zion, Wisconsin.

After retirement, he enjoyed history books, magazines, and newspapers, and remembering current and past events.
