Debra Marie Jones (Darnell)
June 6, 1958 - September 3, 2023
On September 3, 2023 Debra Marie Jones (Darnell) passed away at her home in Republic. She was born in Edmonton, Canada to Mary and Raleigh Darnell on June 6, 1958. She was their pride and joy. Raleigh and Mary Darnell moved to Chelan in 1971 with their children, Debra and Patrick, to run the Darnell’s Resort. Chelan was home for the family for years.
Debra married Daniel Jones from Leavenworth, Washington in 1985. They had two daughters, Danielle and Chelsea Jones. The couple moved to Republic, Washington in 1988 where Debra spent the remainder of her life. Debra spoke highly of Chelan and all the people in it. Even though she made Republic home, Chelan always held a large piece of her heart.
Deb is now home with our Lord and is finally reunited with her mom, dad and little brother Patrick whom she adored. She is survived by her brother Raleigh Gautier; two daughters Danielle Jones and Chelsea Jones and her four beloved grandchildren, Hayley Jones, Kaydin Lembcke, Mason Patrick Jones and Ryker Cochran.
Services will be held on Saturday, Sept. 16 at 2 p.m. at the Church of the Nazarene in Republic, Washington. In lieu of flowers, donations can be sent to Bergh Funeral Services in Oroville, Washington to help pay for her final arrangements.
