Lawrence E. Jones, Sr.
February 21, 1947 ~ January 27, 2019

Lawrence Edward Jones was a hard working father and husband. He rarely took a sick day, stating, “If you don’t work, you don’t get paid.” He was well traveled, visiting numerous places with his wife by his side. He never minced words and would always tell you the truth. He rarely spoke of his tour in Vietnam, but took pride in his service to his country. He is now free from the body that trapped him with numerous medical problems. Lawrence and Nancy have been reunited again, finally able to continue their journey together. He will be missed by all that knew him.

To all of my Nephews you have my heart felt sympathies in the passing of your father, my big brother. May God continue to wrap you in His warm and loving embrace and strengthen you. I love you all very much. Your Auntie Adriane .
Uncle Larry was quite the character. I will miss him. My heart is lightened when I picture Mo and Mo together again, with Randy by their sides. Sending you all my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
Larry and I shared marrying into the Gilbert family. I married Nancy’s sister Rozanne December 26, 1970.
Heartfelt condolences to the Gilberts and my sons Matt , Corey and Pat on the loss of Uncle Larry. I regret that I did not know the Jones family but cherish the memory of knowing Larry, respecting him and always seeing a smile on his face. We are all better because of Larry and Nancy. God Bless.
