Mr. Alan Kenneth Jones, age 73, of Olive Hill, Kentucky, passed away on Friday, May 9th, 2025, at St. Claire Medical Center in Morehead KY.
Alan was born on June 19, 1951, in Medina, Ohio.
Alan began working at the Olive Hill Finishing Company, also locally known as “The Card Factory” under the guidance of his father in the early 1970s. He eventually became the owner and operator, leading the business until its closing. He then worked at the Family Dollar Distribution Center, where he remained until his retirement after 10 years.
Alan loved riding his Harley Davidson, working in the yard, and always liked to stay busy. He enjoyed going to the movies, cherished the holidays with his family, and treasured any chance to spend time with them. He was also a big boxing fan and rarely missed a fight.
Alan is preceded in death by his parents, Fred and Norma Jones, and two brothers, Ronald and Donald Jones, whom he missed every day.
He leaves behind his loving wife, Paulette Jones, of 55 years this June; his precious daughter, Shellie Anne (Ben) Hallock; and his beloved son, Timothy Alan (Jessica) Jones.
He was the proud grandfather of Sarah (Conner) Barker and Sydney Hallock, who were the sunshine of his life. He is also survived by his two brothers and their wives: Rick and Cleda Jones, Chris and Erma Jones.
He was surrounded by every member of his family during the entire seven days he was hospitalized.
Alan was deeply loved by his family, and they were his pride and joy. He will be missed so much that words cannot express.
