Obituary for Harvey "Mickey" Houston Jones II
On Thursday, April 8, 2021, Harvey H. "Mickey" Jones II of Marlow,
found a new place to “hang out”. He joined his beautiful
daughter, Lacy, and his parents along with numerous other family
members and friends.
A celebration of his life will be held at 2:00 PM, Friday, April 16, 2021,
at Callaway-Smith-Cobb Funeral Home, with Rev. Lynn Parkhurst officiating.
Burial will be in the Marlow Cemetery under the direction of Callaway-Smith-
Cobb Funeral and Cremation Services in Marlow.
Mickey was born October 16, 1950, in Marlow, to Harvey
H. "Buster" Jones and Ruby (Wynns) Jones. He was schooled all over
the United States, and he graduated from Marlow High School in
1969. Though he traveled extensively as a child and later as an adult,
he always considered Marlow to be his ‘home base.”
To say that Mickey had a good life would be an understatement. He
lived life to the fullest by working hard, playing hard, and loving hard.
He was in construction management and worked in many exciting
places all over the world including Malaysia, Iraq, Israel, Egypt, and
Thailand. From those experiences, he had lots of funny stories to tell!
He would sit for hours with his family and his friends to reminisce and
tell stories about what he did that others could only ever dream about.
To those who knew him closely, he was a passionate man, driven by
his values, fought hard for what he believed in, and at the same time,
had a great sense of humor.
Mickey was a member of the Masonic Lodge for more than 42 years,
he was Shriner, and a 32nd Degree Mason. He loved the Mason’s and had
the privilege of sitting with his dad in the lodge, something that very few members
ever get to experience.
Mickey was preceded in death by his beautiful daughter, Lacy D’Ann
Holderread, his wife Connie Travis, his parents, Buster and Ruby
Jones; and his grandparents, C.C. and Demple Wynns, and Millard
and Iva Jones.
He is survived by his awesome grandchildren, Alexanna and Caelan
Holderread, his son-in-law, Brian Holderread of Norman.
He is also survived by his only sister, Marilyn P. Wiles
and her husband, Dr. John Wiles of Duncan, two
nephews, Ricky Strain II, of Oklahoma, and Heath Warrington of
Phoenix, Arizona. He is also survived by his aunt, Pat Hill of
Hollywood, Maryland and his uncle, Jonarch Jones of Duncan,
and many loving cousins and friends.
