On Tuesday the former Jones Garage on Main Street in Petersburgh was demolished. When Harold and Eva Jones owned that building they spared no expense in maintaining it. Workers were often hired to keep up the building. Despite its massive size, it was kept painted a bright white. And Eva always had tubs of seasonal flowers to dress it up.When Harold and Eva retired, they sold the garage and the well established business that went with it. Folks will always remember with pride the business that the Jones had there. Photo by Mary Lou Walters.
