Henry C. Jones Sr.

Thank you Hank for seeing me safely to my automobile for16 years! My heart aches for your family. May they find comfort knowing so many care.

Henry was my coach when he taught at St. Joseph’s. What a great time I had listening to his stories about his time in the Navy. Rest in Peace, Coach.

Ashley, Pete and Trish,
I am so sorry for your loss. Your dad was such an amazing man and I am a better person for having known him and all of you. It will always make me smile to think of him whistling as he walked through the house. I pray that you all find peace.

Best young adult friend I had. Lost contact when he went to S Texas in the oil business in the 60s. Were at Sewanee Military together 52 and 53. What a great guy

The Final Salute

“Brothers and Sisters-in-Arms”, Military men and women down through the centuries, have traditionally exchanged “Hand Salutes” as a sign of recognition and as a way to render courtesy and respect one to another.

This “Hand Salute” is the last that we shall render to Henry C. Jones, Sr. our “Brother-in-Arms”. To his family it symbolizes the love and respect that we have for Henry. To Henry it is rendered as a symbol of honor and gratitude to thank him for the devoted and selfless service he rendered to his country during
the Korean War while serving in the U.S. Navy. Henry, we commend you for your honorable military service. You are a true patriot, who served your nation and your community with honor and distinction. You upheld the finest qualities of an American patriot warrior: courage, commitment, generosity, sacrifice, love and devotion to family and country. You were a true friend. We bid you a sad farewell. You will be dearly missed from among our ranks. GOD Bless you. Be at Ease. Rest in Peace.

On behalf of the military veteran Legionnaires of Lowe-McFarlane Post 14 of the American Legion, the VFW Comrades of Post 4588 and the Disabled Veterans of DAV Chapter 30 in Shreveport and Bossier City, Louisiana, we extend our sympathies and our condolences to Henry’s family and loved ones.
