J. Jones

J. Richard “Dick” Jones, age 73, of Westerville, Ohio, was reunited with the love of his life Connie Jones on February 21, 2020. He was born on May 12, 1946 in Chicago, Illinois to parents Dr. Warren Richard and Mary Louise (Robuck) Jones.

In 1980, Richard started his own company called CardioDiagnostic Technology, where he worked until he retired. Early in life he discovered his love of sports by playing football at Interboro High School in Pennsylvania. Richard was an avid Buckeye’s sports fan, especially when it came to football, he and Connie were long time contributors and members of the OSU President’s club. Later in life his love of sports and his family led him to never miss one of his grandchildren's sporting events. Richard also enjoyed travelling to the beach, but his favorite memory was having his whole family together at Topsail Island.

Richard is preceded in death by his wife Connie Jones, mother Mary Louise (Robuck) Jones, brother Morgan Jones, and sister Myna Jones. He is survived by his daughter Kim (Anh) Nguyen, son Mark (Alison) Jones, son Keith (Ashley) Jones, father Dr. Warren Richard Jones, brother Fred (Faith) Jones, grandchildren Madeline Jones, Justin Nguyen, Mary Margaret (Morgan) Hansen, Emily Jones, Kristen Nguyen, Bethany Jones, Michael Nguyen, Matthew Nguyen, Alaina Jones, nieces and nephews Kenny (Letitia) Jones, Wendy (Ray) Fernandez, Christopher (Eve) Jones, Richard “Rico” (Jane) Jones, Lori (Erik) Rhodes, and Meredith (Matt) Burgess.
