1967-2025
Kimberly Lyndel Jones, 58, of Whitinsville, passed away on Monday, June 23, 2025, at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston with her mother and sister at her side. Kim passed away peacefully after battling a long illness, ironically on her birthday.
Kim was born on June 23, 1967, in Worcester, MA. She was one of twin daughters born to Judith (Haringa) Jones and the late Edward Thomas Jones III.
Kim grew up in the Greendale area of Worcester until the seventh grade, when she moved to Whitinsville with her family. Kim graduated from Northbridge High School, class of 85, then went on to Dean Junior College, where she was unfortunately forced to leave due to health conditions. Kim had happy memories of her teenage years and made many lifelong friendships.
Kimberly was known throughout her life for her quick wit and contagious humor. Kim had razor-sharp sarcasm that would inevitably draw laughter and smiles from those fortunate enough to know her. Kim was mentally strong. She had a life filled with medical challenges beginning at the age of sixteen. Kim successfully battled cancer twice.
Her medical history is a testament to how tough she was as she overcame every obstacle. Through it all, Kim never lost her shine. She did not complain about the unfairness of the life she was given, but she accepted it with grace and humor. Kim was a fan favorite among staff at many local rehabs.
Kim enjoyed reading paperback books and was very active on social media. She had strong political views that she would defend, and she was known to post a good meme or two. Kim had a special bond with her mother, with whom she resided, as well as with her dog, Todd. Always an animal lover, Kim loved to spoil her chihuahuas.
She leaves her Mom, Judith Jones of Whitinsville, Sister and brother-in-law- Kelly and William Beaudette of Webster, 2 nephews- William Beaudette Jr. and Ryan Beaudette, and 2 nieces- Stacy Beaudette and Jodi Beaudette
A Gathering of Family and Friends will be held Tuesday, July 8, 2025 from 5:00-7:00 pm at the BUMA Funeral Home, 480 Church Street, Whitinsville.
Burial will be Private.
