Robert Lee Jones was born August 1, 1932 to Lucas and Creola Jones in Walker Springs, Alabama. His parents were later divorced and he relocated to Mobile with his mother. He was reared by his mother and step-father Burrell Smith, Jr. Mr. Smith loved Robert as though he was his own child.
He attended Mobile County Training School. He served as a machinist at Brookley Air Force Base until it closed. He joined Teledyne and worked there until his retirement in 1995.
Robert gave his life to Christ at an early age under Reverend Louis Mitchell at Mount Gilliard Baptist Church. He enjoyed watching sports, westerns, and listening to music. He also enjoyed the company of his family and friends. He surrounded himself with photographs of generations of his relatives on his walls.
