We are sad to announce that on February 21, 2022 we had to say goodbye to Jolene Downing (Grant City, Missouri), born in Maryville, Missouri. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
She was predeceased by: her parents, Joseph Giesken and Virgie Giesken (Heathco) of Quitman, Missouri.; her grandparents, Joe, Lula Giesken, Frank and Lena Heathco; her sister Mary Frances; and her father-in-law Gail Downing.
She is survived by: her husband Jerald James Downing; her children, Jerod Downing (Jennifer), Verlena Coston (Micah), James Downing (Karamaneh) and Valyssa Stark (Tyler); her grandchildren, Imajen, Lyric, Jewel Downing, Jolyssa, Jerrica, Joel, Judah, Leyna Joy Coston, Journee, Lula, Truley, Joseph, Galyn Downing, Milena, Jovey, Vivian, Tylee Jolene Stark, Mother and Shirley Downing; her sisters, Gayla (Les Stevens) and Jeanie (Kevin Harding); her nieces and nephews, Blake, Bruce, Brock Stevens, Emily Maudlin (Brad), Abbey Clarkson (Ben) and Lucas Harding (Josee); and her aunt Monica Zirfas.
