Veledo Elizabeth Jones was born on February 11, 1939, to Artie Wright Newby and Lillie Mae Bookman-Newby in Austin Texas. She transitioned to glory on Wednesday September 20, 2023.
She was educated in the Austin Independent School District and graduated from The Original L.C. Anderson High School in 1958. After graduation she briefly attended the University of Texas at Austin.
She would marry Walter Christopher Jones Sr. and they would go on to have four sons. Walter Jones Jr., Richard Jones, Brandon Jones, and Derrick Jones.

One of her favorite things to do was watch old westerns on the TV. Many Saturday afternoons you would find her there in front of the TV watching them. She was also a big fan of the Los Angeles Dodgers and the now Las Vegas Raiders.
