Pete McDonald

It is with a heavy heart that we mourn the loss of my dad. I have tried many times to find the correct words; all of them uninspiring in comparison to what he deserves. To have known my dad was to know true compassion, kindness and empathy. He was the epitome of work ethic and dedication. He was loyal to a fault. His unwavering conviction of life was contagious to those who met him. Let's hold on to that. Let's remember him as the guy who made you laugh with a bad dad joke or an inappropriate one that most likely was filling an awkward silence. Lets remember him as the guy that would give you the shirt off his back even if he wasnt wearing one. Let's remeber him as the guy who had all the answers even if you weren't asking the questions. Let's remember him through his proudest moments of life: transitioning from dad to papa, building his dream home, retirement from a job held for 40 years and so many others! Please feel free to share your favorite Pete memory something to look back on and remember ❤️

Al Jones

Dr. Alfred Leslie Jones, beloved husband, father, grandfather, pastor, missionary, and educator, passed away peacefully in Valley Center, CA on May 29. 2025, at the age of 87. Born on February 4, 1938, in Pullman, Washington, Alfred was the eldest of three children born to Leslie E. and Margaret O. Jones. He graduated from Pullman High School and pursued higher education at Northwest Nazarene University in Nampa, Idaho, where he earned his Bachelor’s degree. He went on to complete both his Master of Divinity and Doctor of Ministry degrees at Nazarene Theological Seminary in Kansas City, Missouri. In 1958, Alfred married the love of his life, Catherine (Kitty)White. Together, they shared a devoted marriage of over six decades, raising two sons and later delighting in the lives of their six grandchildren. Alfred’s pastoral ministry began at Countryside Church of the Nazarene in Centerview, Missouri (1962–1965), followed by a fruitful period at Valley Shepherd Church of the Nazarene in Meridian, Idaho (1965–1969), where he also served as district youth president and held leadership positions within the Intermountain District. In 1969, answering a call to international ministry, Alfred and his family relocated to Sydney, Australia. There, he served as pastor of the College Church of the Nazarene and lectured at Nazarene Bible College. When the college relocated to Queensland, Alfred remained in Sydney to support the local congregation through a transition and building project, establishing what became Hills Community Church of the Nazarene, where he pastored until 1978. Later, he served for a decade as pastor of Central Church of the Nazarene in San Jose, California, and on the Board of Trustee’s of Point Loma Nazarene University. He was also a valued member of the Northern California District leadership. In 1990, Alfred transitioned to global missionary work in Kenya, where he served as Principal of Nazarene Bible College and was elected the founding Vice-Chancellor of Africa Nazarene University—guiding it to full university recognition. From 1994, he served as Field Director and District Superintendent based in Ethiopia, overseeing mission work across the Horn of Africa, including Ethiopia, Eritrea, Sudan, Djibouti, and Somalia. In 1998, Alfred returned to pastoral ministry in Perth, Western Australia, where he ministered to local congregations and African immigrant communities. He also served as an adjunct lecturer for Nazarene Theological College in Brisbane. After returning to the United States in 2002, he served as “Missionary in Residence” at Northwest Nazarene University and continued to inspire others through speaking engagements at churches and mission conventions well into his later years. Dr. Alfred Jones was a man of deep faith, wisdom, and compassion. His legacy lives on in the churches he served, the leaders he mentored, the students he taught, and the family he cherished. His ministry impacted countless lives across continents, and his legacy of faith, service, and love for God endures in all who knew him. He is survived by his wife Catherine (Kitty), their two sons, six grandchildren, two great grandchildren, an extended number of “cherished ones” considered as their children, and countless others who were impacted by his ministry and example. A memorial service will be held on July 11, 2025 at the Escondido First Church of the Nazarene. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to The Jones Family Scholarship Fund for Higher Education in Africa (checks payable to the Escondido First Church of the Nazarene) in honor of Alfred’s lifelong dedication to global ministry.

Leon Hughes

Leon Hughes, affectionately known as Streaky in the military and Bones to his closest friends, was the kind of person who never took life too seriously. With a sharp wit, effortless charm, and a sense of humour that could lift any room, Leon had a gift for making people laugh and feel at ease. The youngest brother of Rad, brother-in-law to Claire, and a proud uncle to Sophie, Leon brought a lightness and energy to his family that will never be forgotten. Whether cracking a perfectly timed joke or offering a clever one-liner, he had a way of making even the toughest days feel a little bit easier. Though he served his country with dedication, it was his playful spirit and dedication to his family that truly defined him. Leon leaves behind a legacy of laughter, love, and unforgettable moments that will continue to bring smiles for years to come.
