Carol Ann Jones
On the morning of March 26, 2019 Carol Algeo Jones of Evans, GA passed away at the age of 79.
Carol, born to George Howard and Dorothy Elizabeth Algeo, grew up in Michigan and received her Master’s Degree in Education from Wayne State University. She taught kindergarten in Detroit where she met and married the love of her life, Gary Jones. As the Augusta Prep Lower School’s Head of Administration, Carol’s passion enriched generations of the CSRA’s most precious minds.
Carol was a wife, mother, mentor, community leader, a certified Master Gardener, and a shepherd to the wayward; constantly enraptured by each opportunity to share the world’s secrets. With every exchange, her grace lent guidance reminiscent of the providential hand. She was a life-long learner whose greatest joy was sharing her passion for life with her beloved family, as she traveled to every United State.
