Regina Ann Olney

There are people who pass through this world quietly, and then there are those who leave color, music, laughter, and stories behind them wherever they go. She was the latter — unforgettable in every way.

With a spirit as wild and free as a dust devil dancing across an open field, she never stayed still for long. She carried adventure in her soul and wonder in her heart. An enrolled member of the Yakama Nation, she carried with her a deep sense of identity, resilience, and connection that shaped the way she loved her family and embraced the world around her.

She loved to travel, to chase sunsets and unfamiliar roads, and to make every place she landed feel like home. Her gardens bloomed as beautifully as she did, tended with patient hands and a loving heart. Whether she was planting flowers, cooking a meal big enough for anyone who wandered through her door, or dancing barefoot to her favorite music, she made life feel warm, vibrant, and alive.

She was beautiful — not only in appearance, but in spirit. Thoughtful and fiercely protective of the people she loved, she opened her home and her heart to everyone. No one ever left her table hungry, and no one ever felt like a stranger for long. She was the kind of woman who laughed loudly, loved deeply, and never took herself too seriously. She could laugh at her own mistakes just as easily as she could light up a room with her joy.

Music was woven into her soul. She had impeccable taste and an instinct for turning ordinary moments into celebrations. She loved to dance, and she moved through life with rhythm, resilience, and grace. Even in difficult times, she carried humor and light with her.

Above all, she loved her family with everything she had.

She is survived by her children: Donald Jones and his wife Carrie Jo; Christopher Jones and his wife Lindsey; Stephanie Jones-DeYoung and her husband Jon; and Natalie Jones-Campbell and her husband Jared.

She also leaves behind the grandchildren and great-grandchildren she adored: Christopher Jones, Amberlie Jones, Cayla Jones, Ethan Jones, Lelah Jones, Taylor Jones, Regan Jones, Donavon Jones, Greta Jones, Wyatt, Ellis, River Jones, Dominic Jones, Jacob Campbell, and Ripley Campbell.

She was preceded in death by her mother, Louise Nagle; her siblings, Tom Nagle and Andrea Spencer; her beloved granddaughter Cassidy Campbell; and her niece and nephew, Karissa Nagle and Bobby Nagle.

Though her footsteps may no longer wander this earth, her spirit remains everywhere — in blooming gardens, in music drifting through an open window, in laughter around a crowded kitchen table, and in every road that leads toward adventure. She lived boldly, loved generously, and left behind a family forever shaped by her warmth, strength, beautiful gypsy soul, and enduring spirit.
