But In The End America Chose The Boy Who Stuttered Over The Bully Shirt
It’s a finality that Jones didn’t think he would have to face, given the fighting spirit his mother had always shone.
“Even when she was intubated, I thought, ‘Well, it’s my Mom. We’ll give it seven or eight days, and she’ll probably come back off the vent.'”
Jones said his mother would want everyone she left behind to continue keeping themselves as safe as possible through social distancing and other good health practices.
But she also would want them to enjoy life as much as possible, something she couldn’t do in the weeks leading up to her death.
In one of her last conversations with her son, Hyde lamented not being able to hug her grandchildren and being isolated from everything she loved, Jones said.
“We have to be diligent,” Jones said. “We’ve got to do all these things and be safe…”
But risk mitigation — living life while being as careful as possible — is important for all of us, Jones said.

Marc Chase Jack “Bud” Hicks
Name: Jack “Bud” Hicks
City/Town: Portage
Age: 52
Died: Dec. 29
Jack “Bud” Hicks was a hard-working mechanic and steel millwright who knew how to build both machinery and families.
His daughters, Hailee Hicks, 25, and Marissa Donnelly, 27, remember Bud as “Mr. Mom,” regularly shouldering a larger share of the parenting duties when his wife, Julie, was working long nursing shifts.
“He really did it all,” Hailee said. “He rebuilt my mom’s entire house the last four years. He gave her her dream home.”
He coached baseball and softball teams and never missed a youth sports game or practice.
The strong family man became sick Nov. 1, and the family learned Nov. 9 that he was positive for COVID-19.
Bud, of Portage, was then hospitalized at Franciscan Health hospital in Crown Point, and the roles reversed, with his children now checking in and and looking after the needs of a man who was accustomed to playing the role of caretaker.
