Michael Allen Jones passed away on December 31, 2024, in Conway, Arkansas. He was born on December 17, 1956, in Dallas, Texas. Michael was a devoted husband, father, and never met a stranger, especially if you asked about his dog.

Michael is survived by his loving wife, Marsha; son, Ethan; stepdaughters, Lindsey Rowland (Jason) and Ashley Missman (Aaron), as well as his grandchildren, Bailey Missman, Dallas Rowland, Landry Rowland, Austin Missman, Lilly Kate Rowland, and Lainey Missman. He is also survived by his sisters, Cyndi Manor (Jerry), Merryl Boggan (Scott), and Karen Jones; brother-in-law, Charles Harp; several nieces and nephews, and his faithful companion, Zeus, his Belgian Malinois.

Michael was preceded in death by his parents, Perry and Jenny Jones, and his grandparents, Ernest and Gladys Jones.

Michael graduated from Searcy High School in Searcy, Arkansas in 1975 and later pursued higher education at The University of Central Arkansas earning a bachelor's degree in political science. He was also a member of Sigma Tau Gamma fraternity during this time at UCA.

Michael had many different occupations throughout his lifetime. He worked at SafeWay, Fast Photo, Wonder Bread, and most recently, North Little Rock Welding.

During his free time, he enjoyed fishing, going to the farmer's market with his wife and their dog, Zeus, trying out new recipes and grilling, crossword puzzles, and was known for having a stronger handshake than Hercules. He also loved spending time with family, especially his grandchildren.

A Celebration of Life will be held on January 24, 2025, at 11:00am, at Conway First Baptist Church. The service will be held in the Children's Worship Center.
