Born Coreen Newsom on June 16, 1928, in Paducah, Texas, she was the youngest of nine children of the late Rosa and Jim Newsom.
Coreen graduated Paris High School in 1945 and attended Paris Junior College. She worked as an operator for the telephone company in Paris, Texas, for several years.
She married Randall C Jones in 1952 and is survived by him and their children, Ronnie Jones and wife, Dea, of Denton, Rhonda Denman and husband, Chip, of Vicksburg, Miss., Rojenna Sewell and husband, Kyle, of Bedford, Reynold Jones and wife, Beckie, of Bedford, Renda Hawkins of Euless; 26 grandchildren and great-grandchildren; sister, Irma Womack of Forney; and a host of nieces, nephews and other family members.
Coreen resided in Euless for almost 50 years. She took great pleasure and pride in being a homemaker for many years but after all her children were in school she went to work for J.C. Penney Company retiring in 1988.
She was a devout Christian wife, mother and grandmother as described in Proverbs 31; she was the epitome of these verses.
She loved children and also taught vacation Bible school and Sunday school for many years. She was a very quiet and gentle lady and was a behind-the-scenes person always giving of herself but never wanting recognition.
Coreen loved to cook for her family and was always such a gracious hostess. She made homemade jelly and bread for neighbors and friends for many years before she became ill. Coreen was such a special person and was loved by all.
