Steven C Jones
June 10, 1961 — June 18, 2018
Steven C Jones, Born June 10, 1961 in Pocatello, ID to Floyd and Penny Jones, Died June 18, 2018 in Bellingham, WA.
Steve grew up in Pocatello, ID and travelled the country before settling in Bellingham where he met and married his wife, Julie. He had many fond memories of his travels but none more so than the time spent panning for gold in the mountains of California.
A lifelong woodworker, Steve admired those that had the courage to follow their passion, his own included carpentry, sleight of hand, machining, welding and music. Steve was particularly passionate about music. He taught himself to play a variety of musical instruments, not limited to guitar, banjo, violin, piano, flute, accordion but his first love was always his “harp” (harmonica). Perfection was never the goal it was the joy of learning that motivated him.
Steve loved to teach and to encourage the curiosity of others. Steve’s capacity to create complex solutions for simple problems was unending. The aesthetic beauty of a well-built machine could sweep him off his feet.
Steve’s spiritual path was ever evolving. He came to Bellingham to serve the Light House Mission in his role as a Baptist preacher. Steve then studied the writings of Olney Richmond, it fascinated him endlessly. Steve was a gifted reader and took this responsibility very seriously.
Never wanting to stay still, Steve was always striving for the next thing which is how he became the proud proprietor of several businesses including Dovetail Carpentry and The Mystic Textbook.
Steve had the uncanny ability to see the uniqueness in everyone he met. He expected you to be present. And if you were lucky, he would assign you an aptly descriptive moniker. He was compassionate and kind but did not hold back on the truth. Steve leaves behind a small but loyal group of friends and many acquaintances. He is survived by his wife of 26 years, Julie Mulvaney, his big sis Dyan J Heim and his beloved brother Mark Jones.
A celebration of Steve’s life will be held this summer. Please visit www.westfordfuneralhome.com to contact the family if you would like more information or email the family at STEVEJONESCELEBRATION@gmail.com
