It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Destiny Renee Jones, a beloved daughter, wife, mother, and friend, who left us too soon on Thursday morning, January 15, 2026, at the Grant Memorial Hospital in Petersburg, WV following a short illness. Born on March 29, 2001, in Petersburg, WV, she was the daughter of Melanie Ann Schetrom Ramirez of Moorefield, WV, and Carl Michael Douglass Thorn of Beckley, WV.
Destiny was a dedicated mother, pouring love and creativity into her children – Azriel, Azalia, and Ayla. There was never a doubt that her family was her top priority. Her talents for creating were nothing short of magical; she could bring any idea to life through her crafting projects. Destiny approached every detail with warmth and thoughtfulness, ensuring that every occasion was special for her loved ones.
Surviving in addition to her parents is her cherished husband, Mark Allen Jones; her children, Azriel Ryland Jones, Azalia Rey Jones and Ayla Renee Jones at home; her dear sisters, Serenity (Mitchell) Henry of Moorefield, WV, Harmony Thorn of Moorefield, WV and Chasity Thorn of Moorefield, WV along with numerous other aunts, uncles, and cousins.
A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
For those wishing to express their condolences, share memories, or upload photos to honor Destiny’s legacy, we encourage you to visit her Tribute Wall at www.fraleyfuneralhome.com. Let us come together to celebrate our beautiful Destiny and the indelible mark she made on all of us.
Arrangements are under the direction of the Fraley Funeral Home.
