So sorry about your dad, Dr. Jones. I worked as his dental assistant in North Charleston from 1989 to 1992. I will always remember your dad being a very kind person and easy to work with. I remember your mom having the office remodel ed with grass cloth wallpaper and new prints of different types of birds in the low country. Your dad was so proud of her interior design talent!
I also remember when one of you sons came in the office to help vaccum. Bruce or David?
Prayers for you Bruce and David.
