Thanks so much for keeping us posted. -John Redwine (8/4/15) FYV - FSM I got this email from Ed's family: Ed had been ill quite sometime. He was in Peachtree Hospice & died Sparks Palliative care 6:28 pm on 8/2. Thank you for your friendship. -Jake Lamkins (8/4/15) Obit of Ed Jones in today's Ft. Smith newspaper (8-6-15) -John Redwine (8/6/15) I knew Ed about 50 years. He was part of the FSM crew while I was at FYV and we were always handling irregular operations together due to the FYV airport weather which usually ended up with FYV passengers on the ground in FSM. After FL died in 1986 Ed was one of the regulars at our annual reunions. For several years he brought name tags for us. Ed was invariably affable, helpful and an all around nice guy. I never heard him once complain about his medical problems which started before Frontier went bankrupt. He would tell the dog on a leash story and laugh about it. He was a tough guy who fought the good fight. My condolences to Betty and his family. -Jake Lamkins (8/5/15) EDWARD JONES RIW station agent per the 9/15/1963 thru 7/15/1966 FL Station Rosters. -Jake Lamkins (8/6/15) FLacebook - FL Club RIW FSM DEN station agent Ed Jones' memorial webpage is posted: http://FAL-1.tripod.com/Ed_Jones.html -Jake Lamkins (8/9/15) I'm kinda outta the loop, so just read about Eddy.
