Brooklyn Bar hosts third annual Memorial Golf Outing
The Brooklyn Bar Association held its third annual Hon. Theodore T. Jones Jr. Memorial Golf Tournament at the Colonia Country Club in New Jersey on Monday.
The outing was held in honor of Appellate Judge Jones, a beloved and universally respected member of Brooklyn’s legal community, who passed away in 2012. Jones’ passion for golf was well known, and many of the golfers participating in the outing recalled playing with him at the golf course over the years.
“This course is particularly warm to my heart because of those many days that I spent playing with him here several years ago,” said Frank V. Carone, head of the committee in charge of organizing the event. “I know a lot of golfers who had the same enjoyment playing with him. He was great company, always. As a mentor and source of wise golf counsel, he was without equal … everyone in this room who knew him, loved him.”
