Stinker Stores has shared that owner and former CEO Charley Jones passed away from cancer this morning. Founded in 1936, Jones’ Stinker Stores has been a convenience staple of local Idaho communities that has expanded to 106 locations across Idaho, Colorado and Wyoming. Together with Shawn Davis, Jones purchased Stinker Stores from the family of Farris Lind in 2002. In 2012, Jones and his wife Nancy became sole owner and operators of the Stinker brand.
