Read MoreI went to high school with Richard in Starkville, MS. Went with him several times to his dad´s ranch to do some work, shoot our rifles and swim in their pond. Many fond memories from those days. Blessings to his family. He was a good man and friend. Looking forward to greeting him on the other side. (I just found this obituary today)

I'd like to think we've all lost someone.
Must regroup with Dick Jones.

Although I never had the privilege of meeting Dr. Jones, I am truly grateful for the opportunity to serve as an Associate at the company he founded. He leaves behind a company of integrity, knowledge, and service, one that could only have been formed through the leadership and character of its founders. It is an honor to continue the work of Dr. Jones. May God bless you and ease the loss of your loved ones.

Christmas 2016 - "What a great honor to have shared the dance floor with Mr. and Mrs. Jones"
"We only had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Jones once, at the Company's Christmas party. And what a great memory we hold with us. Such a gentile soul and great dancer. I know you will be missed greatly, specially by your beautiful wife. "May god bless you, Mrs. Jones and May you RIP, Mr. Jones"

I am so very sorry for your loss and the loss for many of us that grew up with Richard. I have known Richard since we lived next to each other before we started to school and have many good memories of that time.
