Late judge Ted Jones remembered during BBA’s Fifth Annual golf outing
Members of the Brooklyn Bar Association (BBA) doffed their pinstripes for golf cleats to participate in the fifth annual Honorable Theodore T. Jones Jr. Memorial Golf Outing at the Colonia Country Club in Colonia, New Jersey.
Jones, who was a helicopter pilot during the Vietnam War from 1967 to 1969, died unexpectedly in 2012 after a distinguished career that saw him rise to New York state’s highest court prior to his death.
“He was a good man and a great judge,” BBA President Frank Seddio told the audience. “But what I liked about him the most is that he never forgot where he came from … Brooklyn was always in his heart, and he loved it.”
