Robert Jones

Great HS mate and fellow. BB teammate. Condolences to family and nephew Kurt.

I was Bob's basketball guard, football receiver, and baseball catcher at Bellevue. I introduced him to our Knothole baseball coach. We played football on his street in Bellevue. We went together on rides with our first high school girl friends. When He was at Georgetown and I was at Transylvania, we played baseball against each other and he hit one that was on its way over the right field fence and I got caught trying to catch it at the top of the fence. Bob ran out to the fence to see...

Very sorry for your loss. May he rest in peace.

I offer my sincerest sympathy and prayers for Bob and the Family. A "gentle giant" for sure. A great athlete and coach. I have known him since I had to bat against him as a Freshman at Covington Catholic at 9 am at Bellevue with temperature about 35. (1958). I will never forget it. You all are in my prayers.

Marlene, My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time. I admired and respected Bob as a coach, colleague and friend. Sadly, I didn’t have the opportunity to play for him. Instead I played on the opposing team when he coached at Campbell County. Needless to say, he beat us soundly year in and year out. I will miss him!
