Donivan Jesse Jones

Donivan Jesse Jones passed away on Friday, December 13, 2024, at the age of 29. Donivan was known to be outspoken, headstrong and the life of the party. His smile could light up any room he entered. He was a man of his word, who was a devoted father and family man, who was a great provider and a hard worker. Donivans children were his world and loved spending time with them and making lasting memories they will cherish forever. In his free time he could be found on a boat fishing on the river, camping or, enjoying the outdoors. Donivan was a loving fiance, father, brother, son and friend to all who knew him who is already deeply missed.
