Mineral Wells, West Virginia
Delia Jean Jones “Dee”, 68, of Mineral Wells, WV passed into the Lords
care at home with her loving children beside her on April 28, 2018.
Dee was born January 3, 1950 as Delia Bianka Lehman in Berlin, Germany.
She was blessed to later become the daughter of the late Eugene Lawrence Stiles
and the late Arlice June Stiles of Mineral Wells, WV in 1965, who gave her much
love, warmth and security. By birth, Dee was the oldest of four children.
She is survived by one sister, Shirley Jean (May) Ellis of Chelsea, MI and
one brother James Clifford Uhl of Miles City, MT. She is preceded in death by
one brother, Richard Edward May of PA. Life brought Dee three beautiful children,
the late Virginia Dale Wyatt of Vinton, VA, Tracey Lynn Wetzel (David) of
Reedsville, OH and James Allen McCase of Mineral Wells, WV, two wonderful
grandchildren, Chaz Hamilton Poling of Belpre, OH and Casey James Sheppard of
Vinton, VA, one amazing great-granddaughter, Aurora Grace Poling of Parkersburg, WV.
She was preceded in death by her loving husband of 36 years, the late
James LeRoy Jones “Sonny”. She was blessed to have a step daughter in her life,
Brenda Smarr (Bert) of Mineral Wells, WV and a beautiful step great granddaughter,
Candra Collins of Mineral Wells, WV. Dee’s life brought so much love and joy to
many family and friends. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother and
great-grandmother. She enjoyed spending time with her family and friends, cooking,
gardening, attending church and praising the Lord on a daily basis. Her journey in
life was too short, but the memories will last a lifetime. Her story was already
written, the chapters are what made her life here so precious, and her ending will
forever be a blessing to all. Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days
of my life. My faith is strong, my heart is steadfast, and my spirit is secure.
His promises are true, his word is everlasting, oh give him praise. A celebration of
life will be held on Saturday, May 5, 2018 at 12:00 p.m. at the Mineral Wells Baptist
Church. A special thank you to all the staff of Dr. Nik Shah, Oncologist at
CCMC and LHC Group, Housecalls Hospice.
