Meta Jones’ grave
I recently took a trip to American Falls for work. After I completed the appointment, I stopped at the American Falls Cemetery to pay my respects.
Meta was born 2 July 1952 in American Falls, Power, Idaho and died 25 October 1998 near Kasota, Jerome, Idaho.
17 years ago today my mother, Sandy Jonas, took the life of Meta Marie Ringe Rupp Jones. That day obviously changed Meta’s life, but it also changed the life of everyone else even distantly linked. I dare not say how different life would be if Mom had not taken those actions. I frankly have no idea how life would be. I can only imagine. Some would likely be very welcome, others likely not.
I am not the Judge in the eternal scheme. I do not know the outcome. All I know is that events come in life that rock us to the core. This was one such occasion for many people. The ripples likely flow throughout eternity, positive and negative.

You are an amazing man! You have endured a difficult trial. The ripples and vibes from you are positive and good. You are a good example to all. I am sure with out a doubt that you help so many to heal that suffer tough items. I see the positive ripples from you ability to write and keep histories. We are all benefactors of such goodness that you do. Thank you so much Paul.

So sorry for your loss. Both of your future stepmother as the loss of trust your mother stole when she robbed you of your innocence and the life of Meta Jones that tragic day. God bless you, and may Meta’s memory be a blessing for all who knew her. Time heals all wounds. But once trust, faith and respect is lost in someone you thought you once knew, it’s lost forever.
