Robert "Bobby" Earl Jones

Bobby was the son of the late Mr. Hewlett C. Jones Sr. and the late Mrs. Willie Lane Jones. He was born and raised in Carrollton, Georgia and was the youngest of three boys.

Bobby was a World War II Veteran and member of the American Legion Post 29 in Marietta, GA where he and his wife, Theresa, enjoyed dancing with many of their friends on Friday nights.

When Bobby returned home from World War II, he bought a lot on Lake Carroll, build a home where he and his late wife, Betty Ashmore Jones, lived for 57 years and where they raised their 3 daughters. They taught their children and many of the children's friends to waterski on Lake Carroll. They shared many other great memories in that home and on the lake. Bobby was married to Betty Ashmore Jones from August 22, 1953 until her passing on December 17, 2010.

Bobby had worked as the Assistant Post Master at Carrollton's US Post Office for 40 years. He was a long standing member of the First Baptist Church in Carrollton and held several positions over the years. Bobby and his late wife, Betty, raised their 3 children in that church where he taught Sunday School and escorted many of the church's field trips.
