Good luck with your future endeavors. You taught me in the 8th. grade (Civics). What I remember most is having to learn and recite the preamble to the Constitution. I hated having to do that. I despised coming to class because I knew you were going to challenge me in ways that I didn’t want to be bothered. I was 14 years old, I really didn’t care to learn. Reguardless, you taught me anyway, in spite of myself. Thank you very much. Looking back, I am grateful for what you taught me. I still remember that darn Preamble to the Constitution too!

Thanks, for everthing Coach Jones! I will always remember the times spent with you as a Coach. I have always respected you for what you have given to the Town of Century’s youth. Some may not know but I have seen you provide transportation to the area youth when you were at Century and contuined that at Northview. May God continue to bless you for the things unseen that you do and will continue to do! Thanks Coach Jones!
