Help Honor Ephrem Jones' Memory

It is with deep sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Ephrem Christopher Jones. He was our brother, friend, life-partner, godfather, uncle, and son.

Eph passed following a severe car accident in Santa Maria, California leaving behind his girlfriend, life-long friends, and family. A service for Ephrem and his burial are yet to be determined in Lompoc, California.

Janal Lopez, Jeffrey Howard, and Kristian Wise, all who have been designated to administer Ephrem’s services during this difficult time, respectfully request that donations be sent, in lieu of flowers, to assist with funeral expenses.

As many know, Ephrem served honorably in the United States Army from 2006 to 2010. The VA is able to cover a portion of the burial and perform the Military Funeral Honors in support of his dedicated service; however, it will not be enough to cover the full expense of the cemetery plot, headstone placement, casket, mortuary fees, etc. The designees and their respective families have taken upon themselves to bear the remaining cost to ensure a proper burial and celebration of life for their brother and life-partner; however, all contributions, big or small, are greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

The families of Janal Lopez, Jeffrey Howard, and Kristian Wise
