- Guestbook
He embarked on a career in radio and television promotion during television's early stages. Along the way, he met and worked with a number of celebrities and sports figures of the day. He moved on to become a Mortgage Banker as owner and president of the Carroll Jones Company, a leading mortgage lender and insurance company in the Corpus Christi area. As such, he originated and serviced commercial and residential mortgage loans. He also developed and financed residential neighborhoods. He was an active member of the Kiwanis Club of Corpus Christi. He later moved to Kerrville, Texas where he enjoyed retirement and was instrumental in the development and construction of a residential project to house individuals with disabilities. He spent his later years in Georgetown, and then finally in Austin, Texas where he could be closer to his family. For this, we are immensely grateful. He was full of life, quick-witted, an insightful leader, a thoughtful mentor, and made many who met him smile. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him.
He is survived by his two sons, Philip C. Jones of New Roads, Louisiana and Ben L. Jones of Austin; daughter Anne Jones Miller and husband Miles Miller of Austin; grandsons Bennett Miller and Mix Miller, also of Austin; and sister Carolyn Jones Roden of Midland. He was preceded in death by his parents, Carroll and Anne Jones.
A memorial service will be held at St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Kerrville, Texas on Friday, September 17, at 2:00 PM. Interment will follow in the Garden of Memories Cemetery in Kerrville. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Salvation Army Kerrville or a charity of your choice.

Please accept my condolences for your loss. It was my pleasure to work for Mr. Carroll Jones and Phil Jones back in the 60's and 70's. And that relationship extended to my husband and sons who were fortunate enough to be included in the hunting crowd every fall. That was certainly a big event at that time.
My sincere sympathy in the loss of your father.

We were associated with the Carroll Jones Company back in the 1950's.
Best wishes.
