Patricia "Pat" Louise Jones

Pat was greatly involved in the Gazette of the Greenbrier community. In her free time, Pat enjoyed watching the birds in her yard. She met the love of her life, Bob Jones, in college. Before her husband passed away, Bob and Pat traveled the United States. They celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary in Alaska.

Pat attended Ohio State and earned her degree in Musical Education. Although she obtained her degree, Pat did not teach in the classroom. She was a member of the Gamma Phi Beta Sorority. After graduating from college, Pat became a software technician, which lead them to Raleigh, NC. Several years later, Bob and Pat moved to New Bern because of Bob's job with Cherry Point Base. Soon after Bob's passing, Pat became an active member of Garber Methodist Church. She was, also, a board member of the Reviving Lives Ministries.

Patricia leaves behind her great friends, Kim Romagna and Larry Trace, and several nieces, other family members, and very close friends.

She is preceded in death by her husband, Robert "Bob" E. Jones, and her brother.

A Celebration of Pat's Life will be held at 4:00 PM on May 4, 2023, at Garber Methodist Church. A visitation will follow the service. Pat will be laid to rest beside Bob later this summer in Ohio.
