Claude “Chip” Mastin Jones, III (64) of Williamsburg, VA, passed away unexpectedly in Virginia Beach, VA on July 14, 2021. He was preceded in death by his parents, Anne Armstrong Jones and Claude Mastin Jones, Jr.
Chip graduated from Blue Ridge School, St. George, VA. As a lifelong Williamsburg resident, Chip first worked in the family floral business, Claude Jones Jr. Florist, followed by a career with Colonial Williamsburg. He retired in November 2017 with over 30 years’ service. Following his retirement, he enjoyed spending time with his family and providing care for his grandchildren.
