Looking for contact with family of Bird Jones

[WhiskeyCrow]

Hey all, let me know if this is the wrong place or inappropriate.

My late father bought a TCU bowl ring from a jewelry dealer in Fort Worth probably around 2002. The dealer said the guy traded it in for an engagement ring. It's sat in my closet forever and the other day I was talking about it and did some research which brought me to this thread: https://forum.killerfrogs.com/index...all-player-shot-killed-in-houston-bar.206278/
The ring is from the 1999 Mobile Alabama bowl. It has 'Jones' and #36 on it. It sounds like he was a good dude so I'd like to return it to his family or his mother who is quoted in various news articles. I found her by Google but none of the phone numbers work. If anyone can help me get in touch that would be great. Thanks.

I checked the 1999 roster, he was a grad of Aldine Eisenhower HS. They might have a good contact for his mom.

Your intentions are commendable

The Athletic Dept would be a good starting point. I’m sure Donati would do all he could.

Thanks, I should have thought of that. I sent him an email just now!

If you don’t mind, drop us an update when you have one at some point. I bet many of us would be curious.

Is Shannon @Black Jew on this board?

Before anyone says anything...that's not racist. It's a username here. I'm already used to some of you [ "illegitimate Baylor boys" ] that post here. "Racist, IMO"

I love the purpose of this thread. We need more positivity in this world these days.

Sounds like a good halftime sideline presentation opportunity to me....

Good vibes coming your way, someone in either TCU Athletics or Alumni Relations ought to be able to help.
