On November 6, 2012, Honorable Theodore T. Jones, a noted member of the judiciary, an esteemed member of the legal community, and a beloved husband and father, passed away from a sudden onset heart attack. A member of the New York State Court of Appeals, the highest court in the state of New York, Jones was known for being personable, extremely knowledgeable on the law, and a fair jurist. Jones was also known for his passion for golf.
Honoring their colleague and friend, the Brooklyn Bar Association hosted its first annual “Theodore T. Jones, Jr. Memorial Golf Tournament” Monday, April 29th at the Colonia Country Club in Colonia, New Jersey.
“The relationship the judge had with the Brooklyn Bar Association was a special one,” Domenick Napoletano, the president of the Brooklyn Bar Association, previously told the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. “Judge Jones would often joke that Brooklyn’s Bar Association was his favorite out of all of the bar associations.”
