Major General David M. Jones

Jere and Family,

I just today learned of General Jones' passing. I was his last aide-de-camp. He was the best boss I ever had. What a great man Davy was! He lived life to the fullest. My family was truly blessed by knowing and working with General Jones and Anita. The world is truly a better place because of the life of General Jones and all he did.

Please accept my deepest sympathies.

To me you will always be "Uncle Jimmy" and I was always so proud to be your niece. Your visits to Denver were special. God bless you and your family.

Jananine and Family, we are so very sorry for your loss, despite the long, full and illustrious life Davey had. By all accounts he was truly my dad's hero and we feel very honored and privileged to have known him and called him our friend. He meant so much to our family and especially my dad and we know without a doubt they are together, having a martini and toasting to the undeniable greatness they both shared. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dearest Ole' Dad: You are the father of my beloved husband, David M. Jones, Jr. and you were a blessing and a very good friend as my father 'n' law. David, myself, Ben, Mark and Chris will miss you with all our hearts. PS: Please give grand mommie a big kiss from all of us.

Thanks to all who so kindly expressed their sympathies.Lets all celebrate his long and full life.He was the real "John Wayne".Bye dad,we love you.Our love to Mom.

My sympathies to the family. I never had the honor of meeting him, but know of him through numerous publications, especially those about the Doolittle raid . We owe our freedom to heroes such as General Jones. Rest in peace, brave patriot.

General Jones, may the God of Our Fathers ensure your eternal peace. You were an inspiration to all during the dark days of Stalag Luft III. A fellow Kriegy.

I Love You
