Marion Dorothy

Jones

Mrs. Marion D. Jones entered into eternal rest on December 29, 2025, in Maryland. She was born on February 7, 1931, in Waverly, Virginia, the tenth child of the late Rev. Frank and Mamie Ellis Davis.

Affectionately known as "Dottie" Marion received her early education in the Waverly and New York City Public School Systems. She later moved to Richmond, Virginia, where she married the late Sergeant Charles Jones. During her life, she lived in Germany, traveling extensively and collecting meaningful experiences and distinctive décor from around the world. She united in fellowship with Westwood Baptist Church.

Marion will be lovingly remembered by her niece Sadie Christian, her godson Ernest Christian III, generations of great-great and great-great-great nieces and nephews, and a host of other relatives and friends. Known for her quick wit, sassy charm, and love of travel, her legacy lives on in the hearts of all who knew her.

Her journey here is complete, but the memories she collected along the way will travel with us forever.

A reception and a Morning of Remembrance will be held at 9:30 a.m. January 13, 2026 at Westwood Baptist Church, 915 Glenburnie Road followed by a Celebration of Life Service at 10:00 a.m. Dr.  Alonza Lawrence of Moore Street Baptist Church, officiating. Interment Quantico National Cemetery.

Please join us for this time of fellowship, reflection, and comfort as we honor a life beautifully lived.
