Obituaries
Jones Webb
Retired Lawrenceville attorney Jones Webb entered eternal rest on Friday, Feb. 25, 2022, at his home surrounded by loved ones. He was preceded in death by his wife of 65 years, Marion Allison Webb, who passed away on Dec. 9, 2016.
Jones’ request was that his obituary be a humble expression of his character, and so it begins. Jones Webb never liked his name because he didn’t have a middle name and people were always calling him “Webb Jones.” He was a faithful son and brother, a small-town lawyer, loving husband and father, a family man, and friend to all.
