Notes

Richard S. Jobson, 84, of West Simsbury, died Wednesday, (September 5, 2007) at Governor's House in Simsbury. Born in Wethersfield, he was the son of the late Archie and Marjorie (Wiley) Jobson. He graduated from Wethersfield High School and attended Vermont Junior College. Richard leaves his wife of 58 years, Alice (Verbonick) Jobson. In addition, he is survived by his son, David Jobson, of Simsbury; his daughter, Margaret Crofton and her husband, Edward, of Simsbury; and his brother, John, of Colorado. "Pops" will also be missed by his granddaughters, Kathryn Crofton, of New Haven, Maggie Crofton, of Simsbury, and his great-grandson, Dade Crofton, of Simsbury. Richard proudly served in the Navy during World War II. He retired from SNET in 1981. Richard was an avid fan of the Red Sox, the Celtics, and Simsbury Slow-Pitch Softball. Richard was rarely idle and he will be remembered for many years through the beautiful hand-made furniture, wood carvings, stained-glass pieces, and ship models he created. Richard's family would like to extend their deepest appreciation to the many people who cared for him during the past 18 months, especially Annie, Judy, and Clare, of Governor's House. A memorial service for family and friends will be held Saturday at 11 a.m. at Taylor and Modeen Funeral Home, in West Hartford. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to The Alzheimer's Association, 279 New Britain Ave., Kensington, CT 06037.
