IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Graham E.
Jones
January 31, 1933 – March 21, 2021
Graham Ely Jones, 88, died at Newbury Court in Concord, MA in the company of his son, Graham E. Jones, Jr., early in the morning of March 21, 2021. He was the beloved husband for 59 years of the late Annie Landry Jones, who died in September of 2019. Graham was born as Graham Jones, Jr. on January 31, 1933 as the first child of Mr. & Mrs. Graham Jones of Farmington, Connecticut. He attended the Kingswood School, then Kent School, Phillips Exeter Academy, and Princeton, and then served as a Lieutenant in the United States Marine Corps from 1955 to 1957, before marrying Anne Fryer Landry of West Hartford, CT on September 17, 1960. He worked at W.E. Hutton on Wall Street before joining Burnham & Co., and later becoming CFO of that company as Drexel Burnham Lambert. During that time, Graham and Annie moved from Manhattan to Greenwich, Connecticut with their two daughters for the birth of their son. Graham was a formidable athlete for most of his life, contributing to his and Annie's popularity there. In 1979, the family moved to Beacon Hill, where Graham pursued various business interests. He and Annie made many great friends in Boston before moving in 1997 to Taos, then Santa Fe, NM where Graham was a partner at BGK Properties. During this time, Graham was on the board of numerous mutual funds for Morgan Stanley Asset Management, Weiss Peck & Greer, Sun Life of Toronto, and through Morgan Grenfell's transition to Deutsche Bank Asset Management/DWS. Then, in 2007, Graham and Annie moved to Lincoln, MA to be closer to their two grandchildren in Concord and to re-connect with their wonderful friends on the East Coast. 2008 brought Graham and Annie to Newbury Court in Concord, where Graham went through a distinctly new phase of his life being a devoted caregiver to Annie and making, once again, so many great friends through his indomitable spirit and generous appreciation of others. Graham is survived by his children, Margaret I. Jones, Alden Jones Perkins, and Graham E. Jones, Jr., and his grandchildren David and Jack Perkins, as well as his sister, Judy Jones Babcock of Old Saybrook, CT.
