To The Family of Hurley,
What a blessing all of you had with Hurley being in your lives for 100 years! I haven't seen him for several years; but have strong memories of his smiles, twinkle eyes, his fairness in all matters concerning family and friends. May God bring you all peace knowing he had such a great life and touched so many. Remember the good times, laughter and most of all the love. They can never take away your memories.

Grandpa, my kids and I always remember coming to visit and pick raspberries, and of course the swing. You loved showing off your garden and your motorbikes. I always think of you when I'm eating fresh raspberries and making jam!
Great Grandpa, I have so many fun and always entertaining memories with you. One of my fondest is you teaching me how to dive in Colorado. Who gets to learn how to dive from their Great-Grandpa, ME!!!! Who can forget us losing you on the train, only to find you reading poetry with a women in the dining cart. Rest in peace Great Grandpa, you are so loved and will be so missed.

All of us kids had quite a few Dads when we were growing up in Milton. Hurley was one in a million and the last of them all. He never changed -- didn't say too much, (didn't have to -- he was a DAD), and always had a smile and a twinkle in his eyes as if he was going to play a joke on someone. He lived his long life to the fullest and now he and Eula are together again! Enjoy heaven, you two. Thank you for all the wonderful memories...
Psalm 90:10 states that a normal lifespan is 70 years but if because of special mightiness 80 years. Mr. Jones certainly lived a long life and I'm sure was dearly loved by his large family. May you all be comforted by our Heavenly Father and find hope in His written word the Bible. (Rev. 21:3,4)
Grandpa Jones, Rest in Peace with Grandma in heaven! I still remember the smell of the basement where you would scoop ice cream into cones for we kids. And sorry for running over some of your garden with your riding lawn mower, I don't know why you trusted us with that thing!!.....Josie Smallwood
