Gary Christian Jones, 85, of Georgetown, Texas, passed away peacefully on September 9, 2024. He was born on September 15, 1938, in Turtle Creek, Pennsylvania, to Lester and Veronica (Zang) Jones.

Gary graduated from Wilmerding High School before proudly serving his country in the United States Army, stationed in Livorno, Italy, during the Korean Conflict. Following his military service, he embarked on a successful career as a manufacturing engineer. He spent forty years working for Westinghouse, first in East Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and later in Georgetown, Texas, after relocating in 1974. Additionally, Gary worked for Artcarved Jewelry for six years before enjoying his well-earned retirement.

A true Pittsburgh Steelers fan, Gary could often be found watching his beloved team on Sundays, passionately cheering them on. His love for his family was boundless, and his warm personality meant he never met a stranger. His kindness, humor, and presence will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
