Bob E. Jones, 84, of Tomball, Texas, passed peacefully into eternity on May 28, 2026, after a courageous eight-month battle with brain cancer. Throughout his journey, Bob demonstrated remarkable strength and resilience.
Bob was born on June 1, 1941, in Chickasha, Oklahoma, to Raymond and Nina Jones. He spent his formative years in Lake Jackson, Texas, where he graduated from Brazosport High School in 1959. In February 1960, Bob proudly enlisted in the United States Army. He spent most of his service stationed in Germany and was promoted to Sergeant in October 1961. He completed his honorable service in July 1963.
Bob will be remembered for his generous spirit and quiet dedication to others. He was especially devoted to his family, cherishing time with his grandchildren and taking immense pride in their lives. His greatest act of love was the unwavering care he provided for his beloved wife, Reba, during her more than nine-year struggle with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.
A lifelong sports enthusiast, Bob enjoyed cheering for his hometown teams, the Astros, Rockets, and, in earlier years, the Oilers. He also had a deep passion for golf, spending countless hours playing courses throughout the Houston area. His career in electrical sales with Schneider Electric provided opportunities to travel the world, including trips to Europe where he delighted in playing some of the region’s golf courses.
Bob is survived by three children: Deborah Lobello, Dianne Price, and Denise Lindley; eight grandchildren and eighteen great-grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Raymond and Nina Jones, and his beloved wife of 49 years, Reba Jones.
A graveside service will be held on June 11 at 11:00 a.m. at Brookside Memorial Park, 13747 Eastex Freeway, Houston, Texas 77039.
The family extends their heartfelt gratitude to the caregivers at Cypress Assisted Living, Prime Choice Hospice, and especially his dear friend and neighbor, Monica, for their compassion, dedication, and unwavering support during Bob’s final months.
