Jimmie Ruth Coneley

On the afternoon of August 3, 2024, Jimmie passed away peacefully at her home in Uvalde, Texas. Jimmie was 72 years old.

Jimmie was born in the City of San Angelo, in Tom Green County, Texas on September 30, 1951. She was the third child of all daughters born to Mary Lou (Mallett) Bess and James William "J.W." Bess.

She enjoyed all sorts of shopping, collecting, and embraced every opportunity to display her generosity in giving gifts to others.

Jimmie was preceded in death by her parents, J.W. and Mary Lou Bess; the father of her children, Gordon R. Coneley; and brother-in-law, Hugh Ned “Rusty” Jones.

Jimmie is survived by her children, James 'Brandon" Coneley of Uvalde and Ann Dean Coneley-Grinnell, (Joshua C.
