Harry Allen Jones III, 85, of Ludlow Falls, Ohio passed away after a long illness on May 31, 2025. He was born in Welch, West Virginia in 1939 to Harry and Edith Jones, and grew up in West Virginia, Maryland, and Ohio.

During his professional career, he served as president of the H.A. Jones Company in Dayton and established Stillwater Winery in Troy. Harry was an avid reader, lover of fine wine, and music enthusiast.
