William "Doug" Jones

William Douglas “Doug” Jones, 74, a native Mobilian and resident of Daphne passed away on Tuesday, July 20, 2021.

A member of Christ the King Catholic Church, Doug was a devoted Catholic and family man.

When not working or spending time with his family, Doug enjoyed golf, playing pool and eating at the East Shore Cafe. Doug will be remembered for his kindness and generosity, for his warm smile and his unforgettable laugh, and for the countless ways he impacted our lives and the lives around him.

Jones of Daphne; sons, Doug (Amanda) Jones of Daphne, Chris (Janelle) Jones of Daphne, John (Lydia) Jones of Bromley, Stephen (Dana) Jones of Mobile, Matthew (Lisa) Jones of Cantonment, FL; daughter, Mary Elizabeth (Kevin) Wentworth of Daphne; 11 grandchildren; sister, Diane Tomberlin of Mobile; many other loving relatives and friends.
