Robert M. Jones, Jr.

Altoona, PA 814-942-2661 X

Bob’s ties to our Association run deep. He has been a life member for more than 50 years and has served as an officer in his branch for more years than he can remember. He originally served as secretary-treasurer for Branch 231 of the former Catholic Knights of St. George. After the Knights merged with WPA in 1983, Bob continued to serve as branch treasurer and branch coordinator for WPA Branch 800 Altoona. He continues to serve both of those roles today. Bob has also represented his branch as a delegate at the last three General Conventions.

He was born Nov. 17, 1942, in Atlanta, Ga., the oldest of eight children. After graduating from Altoona Catholic High School (later known as Bishop Guilfoyle High School) in I960, Bob studied business at St. Francis College (before it became St. Francis University), earning his degree in 1965.

That same year, Bob began his 46-year tenure as director of the Jones Funeral Home in Altoona, which was opened by his grandfather, Edgar, in 1912 and then run by his father, Robert, after World War II. He has served as co-chairman of the Altoona Kiwanis “Buddy Club” since 1984, which has provided hundreds of local youths with after school activities and programs.

Bob and his wife, Margaret, are the parents of four daughters—Ann L. Hammond, Pamela S. Kupchella, Nicole M. Kimmel and Renne K. Dugan—and have seven grandchildren and one step-grandson. □
