Sincere condolences and fond memories of our Laurel Gardens neighbot.

Dr. Jones was one of the best teachers we had in the Chemistry Department at UNH. As my mentor - he was tough, but always there to help. He will be missed by all who knew him.

our sympathy to the Jones family. We affectionately remember Paul tending the flowers around the Laurel Gardens pool. He was a cordial neighbor and we missed Paul and Meredith when they moved away. Sincerely, Anthony and Joyce Kales

Psalm 90:10 says that the days of our years are 70 years, And if because of special mightiness they are 80 years.
May the memories of the wonderful times you shared together bring a smile and joy in your heart.
