Zackery Tyler Jones

Zackery Tyler Jones, 18, returned to Heaven early on Saturday, May 27, 2017 near his home in West Valley City, UT.  Born July 17, 1998, to Marjorie Hoggan Boehme and Christopher Jones in South Jordan, UT.  

Zack was a very happy and energetic child.  He loved to play outdoors and create with his hands.  He was very curious and enjoyed figuring out how things worked.  He had a passion for camping and skateboarding and was rarely seen without his headphones on listening to his favorite music.  He had a great imagination partly influenced by his favorite fantasy movies including The Lord of the Rings. He joined the Cub Scouts and achieved the Arrow of Light.  Zack graduated from Hunter High School in 2016 and then chose to pursue some additional post high school education, of which he graduated and celebrated, just 2 days before his passing.  He was deeply empathetic, and to those around him, he was a great support and was always willing to lend an ear to anyone in need. 

He leaves behind his broken hearted family: mother Marjorie (Christian); siblings Michael Lynn, Connor, Elena; his father Christopher (Katie); siblings Ethan, Hunter, Elexsus, Jaxson and Jayda, as well as a very large extended family who all loved him dearly.
