He said he knows some rescuers may feel they have failed the family, but family members know workers did everything they could to free their son and brother. Josh Jones, John Jones’s younger brother, offered a statement of gratitude to rescue workers. The crevice is not named, mainly because it is too small for most cavers to reach and map. The area he was stuck in was an offshoot from the main path on the southeast side at the end of the cave. Jones became trapped in the cave around 8:45 p.m. “It will be, as they described it, a sacred place to them,” Cannon said. An important point for family and rescuers is that Jones’s resting place remain undisturbed. Officials from several agencies will meet Monday morning to discuss the best way to seal the cave, and a uniformed deputy will be guarding the entrance until the cave has been permanently closed. Though plans have not been finalized on how the cave will be closed, officials say there will be a spot reserved for Jones’s family to erect a memorial for him. “With that in mind it has been decided that the cave will be permanently closed to all access.” “Because of where he is located in the cave and the danger involved in accessing that area, we have determined that the risk involved in removing John from the cave is too high,” said Utah County sheriff’s Sgt. Officials announced Friday afternoon that the cave will be permanently closed and sealed, and rescue workers will no longer attempt to remove Jones’s body. The Nutty Putty Cave, where John Edward Jones spent the last nearly 28 hours of his life, will also be his final resting place.
