Air Force Retirement


Steve Jones, Delton's brother, retired from the Air Force this summer. What an accomplishment!

We left our motorhome in Colorado and headed for Texas to attend the ceremony and after party. The ceremony was very moving and emotional. Awards and Certificates were presented to Steve and his wife Christi, kids Stephanie and Reagan, and Mom Josie. Presenting the awards was Major General Rita Aragon (2 Star General)!


Kevin Jones, our nephew, (Ron's son) was able to attend and be part of the ceremony. See Kevin in his Navy uniform. Kevin is just a few years away from retirment also.


Members of ROTC from Keller High School attended and performed a flag folding ceremeny. As each fold of the flag was completed, the meaning of the fold was recited. Our founding fathers knew what they were doing!


We are so proud of our county and of Steve for his service.


Thanks Steve.
