Dorothy Jones

Dorothy Petersen Jones

Early Monday morning, December 17, 2018, embraced by her family, surrounded by love, Dorothy Petersen Jones left this earthly life.

There wasn’t a positive word that didn’t describe Dot. Compassionate, smart, witty, elegant and the list could go on and on. Dorothy was the best mother, grandmother and friend anyone could ask for. Her words of wisdom will be cherished by all that knew her.  Dorothy cast everlasting warmth on anyone who crossed her path. She gave herself to all aspects of the community here in Ogden. She was a teacher for 30 years and was known to give lessons far beyond the classroom. Although there are many accomplishments to mention, her greatest was the impact she had on her beloved Ogden.

Her spirit lives on through her daughter, Syd; son-in-law, Les; granddaughters, Haley, Taylor and Shelby; and her many close friends.

Come celebrate Dorothy’s wonderful life and your memories of her at the Eccles Community Art Center at 4 p.m. on Saturday December 22, 2018.

In lieu of flowers, Dorothy would love for contributions to be made to the Mckay-Dee Foundation.
