Obituary of Tipton Robert Cone

With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Tipton Robert Cone, a loving husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. Born in Guam, he was raised in Metairie, Louisiana, where he graduated from Behrman High School. He then moved to Houston, TX, and later spent his years in Boca Raton, FL, where he raised his children and retired in Pensacola, Florida.

Tipton is survived by his devoted wife, Jeanette; their children, Melanie, Matthew, and Eric; seven grandchildren: Alexis, Danilo, Isabella, Anthony, Luca, Lily, and Grace; and one great-grandchild, Alani.

A hardworking individual, Tipton dedicated himself to maintaining the beautiful grounds of Florida Atlantic University.

In his free time, Tipton enjoyed watching Western movies; his favorite film was Blue Crush. He also found joy in admiring the beauty of tropical flowers, especially hibiscus and Mandevilla plants; spending time at the beach; sipping his beer; bird watching; and being surrounded by his loving family.

Tipton's life was a testament to the power of love, family, and the beauty of nature. He will be deeply missed, but his memory will live on in our hearts. Rest in peace, dear Tipton. Your legacy will never fade.
