Jones-Wixson
May 31, 1932 – November 17, 2018
Jeanette Mae Jones, 86, of Micco, FL, Passed away November 17, 2018 at 8:20 P.M. with VNA Hospice care at Sebastian Hospital, In Sebastian, FL. Jan was born on May 31 st, 1932, In Aurora Iowa, to the late John and Rachael Werner. Jan had eleven siblings, (John Werner Jr., Donald Werner, Larry Werner, Patrica Wynn, Randy Werner, Thomas Werner, Robert Werner, Edwin Werner, and Linda Larson.
Jan was the wife of Gorge Benjerman Harrison Hessler, during their time together they had four kids, David Hessler (wife Joan) of Valley Center Kansas, Jackie Litty (husband Larry) of Clearance Iowa, Randie Hessler of Casper Wyoming, and Shirley Hessler of Hutchison Kansas; she has 16 grandchildren and many great-grandchildren. George and Jan divorced in 1975. She married William Jones of Clinton Iowa in 1978, where they relocated to Kansas, to be near family. In 1993 Jan moved to Vero Beach Florida with her sister where she enjoyed activities with the Oriole Club. Jan met a man by the name of Carl Wixon in 1994, they soon after married. In 2001 Carl passed away. In 2003 she met Ralph Mangini.
Jan's life was filled with laughter and love as a homemaker and child care provider. Most of the children she babysat were like grandchildren. Hundreds of children. She enjoyed crocheting, quilting, knitting, sewing, and let's not forget her trips to the casino. Not a day would pass that she would take the time to talk to family no matter the distance. She never passed a chance to spend time with family and friends. If you ever went to Grams house and left hungry, that was your fault. She loved to cook for everyone. Still waiting for the cinnamon rolls and pecan pie.
The last fourteen years of Jeannette's life was spent with her partner Ralph Mangini. Ralph took her places that most can only dream of. The love they shared was only found in fairy tells, but that love was her life.
Jeanette was proceeded in death by her mother, father, four brothers, one sister, her daughter Shirley, and three grandchildren.
