It is with great sadness to announce the passing of Arnell Karen Keith- Jones on March 20, 2023.
Arnell was the first born of proud parents Dolores Everett Osborne (deceased) and William
Reginald Osborne (deceased) in Worcester, MA on February 28, 1951. Arnell lived a life full of
love, compassion, integrity, humility, quiet confidence, and celestial grace. Arnell was a voracious
reader, quick-witted, fun-loving, and very energetic woman. Arnell loved to take long walks and
truly enjoyed traveling. She is especially remembered as a loving wife and a wonderful mother.
There was no sacrifice too great for her to give to benefit her children and grandchildren.
For over 40 years Arnell worked in the radio industry, retiring in 2019 as the Traffic Manager
and Continuity Director at Cumulus Media in Worcester, MA.
Arnell leaves us broken-hearted, none more than her husband, Darryl Jones, of Hyde Park, NY;
her daughter, Angela Keith, of Worcester, MA; her daughter-in-law, Trish Keith, (wife of
deceased son, Andrew) of Newark, DE; her sister, Vivianne Hardy-Townes, and brother-in-law,
Ronald Townes, of East Point, GA; her brother, William Osborne MD, and sister-in-law, Tisa, of
Fayetteville, GA; her brother and sister-in-law, Julius and Ruth Jones, of Staatsburg, NY; her
grandchildren, Trinity Contreras, Amaya Keith, and Csylas Keith. She also leaves a host of nieces,
nephews, cousins, extended family, coworkers, and friends. We all will miss her terribly.
