We recently received this note from Dell Jones:
Hello,I wanted to pass on my fathers information for the alumni of Harza Engineering. As a 10 year old boy I was able to live in Kandahar Afghanistan while my father worked for Harza.
I am following to some degree the his work in electrification as a professional in the solar industry and hold in high regard his work for Harza in 1967 to 1969.
His Obituary follows:
James B. Jones III, remembered as a “man of the world,” died (date of death). He was 82.
Born January 15, 1931, better known as Jim ; grew up in the sea coast town of Brunswick, GA. After graduating Glynn Academy high school in 1949, Jim attended Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, earning a degree in Electrical Engineering. While attending his beloved Georgia Tech, he was in the marching band and ROTC. Jim graduated in 1955 and went on to serve his 8 years of active duty and retired as Captain and Company Commander serving our country proudly. He later attended Fairleigh Dickinson University in Madison, NJ and earned a MBA. in 1977.
It was during his years at Georgia Tech, he met a nursing student named Angelyne Brumbelow; the two married in September, 1953.
A passionate traveler and adventure seeker, Jim and his wife traversed the globe. Jim's career included working for FPL in Florida, Harza Engineering in Kandahar Afghanistan, TMSI in Tehran, Iran, ConEd in New York City, SECO and Aramco in Saudi Arabia. Their homes were in Hawaii, Afghanistan, New Jersey. Iran and Saudi Arabia and traveled in too may countries to list before retiring to Fort Myers.

Jim is survived by his wife Angie, their three sons Keith, Dell and David, and seven grandchildren and one great grandchild.
