     Robert Lee "Bobby" Lyon On Tuesday, September 29th, 2020, God called home one of his angels. Robert “Bobby” Lee Lyon, of Arrington, was the loving husband of Arlene Mantiply Lyon for 62 years. Bobby was born on December 19th, 1938 in Covington to Woodrow and Carrie Lyon. He was preceded in death by his parents, brother Lester Lyon, and son-in-law Gordon Purvis.

Bobby was a one of a kind person and was known for his strength and endurance. Along with others, he always told stories about the amazing feats of strength he displayed in his younger days.

Throughout his years, Bobby stayed busy doing things he enjoyed. He was a timber cutter at heart. He drove a school bus for 13 years and was the owner and operator of Arrington Mini Mart for the last 35 years. Bobby loved to deer hunt, work on the farm and attend shooting matches.

He was born in Nelson County on October 19, 1927 to the late Albert and Estelle Jones. He was also preceded in death by his wife of 50 years, Lila Tyree Jones; his siblings: Raymond and Claira; and his son-in-law, Joe Hughes. He is survived by sisters: Ethel Tyree, Pearl Angus and Myrtle Adams and “special sister”, Jean Jones. He is also survived by his devoted children: William Jones, Linda Hughes, and Phillip Jones (Dawn); nine grandchildren: Wanda Branch (Darrell), Candice Clark (Ron), Ben Hughes, Jaime Justus (Chris), Melanie Mays (Jason), P.J.

Through God’s guiding hand he led Hut to accomplish many things in life that he was proud of, but God and Faith always came first in his life. One of those accomplishments was finishing Adult Education courses after retirement. He retired from VDOT after 37 years of service as a supervisor, but enjoyed operating the motor grader best. Even after retirement, he contracted in the winter for snow removal. While working for VDOT, he also pastored The Church of God in Gladstone for 35 years. He faithfully supported the church and the fellowship and kept the church from closing even though the congregation was small. He led the worship ministry program weekly at Fairmont Crossing Health and Rehabilitation in Amherst . On Thursday mornings he broadcast a devotional ministry on local channel AM 1420. Along with his devotion and passion for ministry and following God’s word he also enjoyed playing music and singing, farming, hunting and fishing and enjoying time with his family. Interment will follow in the Jones Family Cemetery on Norwood Road, Gladstone.5 He was buried at Jones Family Cemetery, Norwood Road, Gladstone, Nelson Co., Virginia.5 He was born on October 19, 1927 at Arrington, Nelson Co., Virginia.3,5,7 He married Lila Lucinda Tyree on December 24, 1948 at Nelson Co., Virginia.4,5,6 Herbert Sidney Jones died on September 2, 2019 at Virginia at age 91.5
