Obituary for William Hartley Jones William Hartley Jones, 80, died peacefully in his sleep at Westminster Canterbury retirement center in Winchester, Virginia, in the early hours of May 2, 2018, following a short illness. Funeral services are scheduled for May 11, at 11:00 a.m., at Christ Episcopal Church, Winchester. Bill was born in Winona, Mississippi, on February 23, 1938, to the Rev. Winfred Pipes Jones and Eugenia Lewis Brookfield Jones. The family moved several times in his childhood but he always considered Palatka, Florida, to be where he grew up. Bill graduated from the University of Mississippi in 1960 and married Katharine Davis Mounger (Kay) in 1961. He spent most his adult life in Middle Tennessee, where he worked for the Social Administration. He also farmed and hosted a bed and breakfast until he and Kay moved to Winchester in 2010. He was a devout and active member of the Episcopal Church throughout his life, most recently of Christ Church in Winchester. He was a regular volunteer there, as well as at the Virginia State Arboretum at Blandy Farm. He loved to travel and at one point estimated he had visited 30 different countries. He is survived by Kay, his wife of 57 years; two children, Katharine Eugenia (Kathy) Jones and William Davis (Davis) Jones; a daughter-in-law, Rosario (Charo) de la Rosa Jones; and a granddaughter, Julia Eugenia Jones. Other survivors include an older brother, John Ackland Jones, and his wife, Shirley Jones; an older sister, Winifred Pipes Jones Peeples; and a younger sister, Eugenia Lewis Jones Lagrone; two brothers-in-law, Samuel Gwin Mounger and Whitman Davis Mounger and their wives, Suzanne and Liz; eleven nieces and nephews; and numerous great-nieces and great-nephews. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to Christ Church Episcopal Church, 140 W. Boscawen St., Winchester, VA 22601 or to Doctors Without Borders USA, P.O.
