Evan Christopher Jones, age 39, of Collinwood, TN, passed away on Monday, November 25, 2024. He was born on January 5, 1985, in Florence, AL, the son of Steven Marshall and Cathy Dianne Gann Jones.

Evan’s journey through life was marked by love and dedication. He began dating Keri Ann Wooten on November 3, 2002. It was true love from the start.

Professionally, Evan was a Journeyman Electrician with the IBEW Local 558, where his skills shone brightly. Beyond his work, he found joy in woodworking and traveling. Yet, nothing brought him as much joy and fulfillment as the time spent with his family. They created many memories together. Ones that will be cherished forever.
