Pride, Ed.D., Chair of the Prince Edward County Board of Supervisors. “Supervisor Bobby Jones spent much of his adult life in service to the citizens of Prince Edward County. He will be missed by many, for many reasons. The loss of his unwavering love and support of the County of Prince Edward, his district and his constituents will be deeply felt.”
Robert M. Jones will be remembered in Prince Edward County for over twenty-one years of service on the Prince Edward County Board of Supervisors and thirty-six years of service on the Prince Edward County Planning Commission.
