will and deter-
mination to live
and succeed. Al-
though he could
no longer speak
and was partial-
ly paralyzed, he
went on to reha-
bilitate and live
independently
for more than a
decade still en-
joying his love of
dice, cards, bird
hunting, fishing.
Every chance he
had, a fishing
pole was in his hand for as long
as his body allowed. As his health
deteriorated, he was forced to live
with 24 hour care for several years
to come. His strong will kept him
fighting for his independence re-
gardless of the rules.
Jerry Jones was a force to be
reckoned with continually push-
ing all limits and boundaries.
Through all his trials and tribula-
tion, he persevered. He worked
hard, played hard, and loved hard.
He would give anyone the shirt off
his back, and his strength, deter-
mination, and passion will always
be remembered.
A military graveside service
was held Monday, June 29,2015 at
10 a.m. at the Prairie View Ceme-
tery in Aransas Pass, Texas.

were quite the ride for Jerry. He
married Dorothy Gold in 1970
and had two loving daughters;
Becky and Jenny. Although Jer-
ry and Dorothy divorced in 1980,
their friendship, love and devo-
tion to their daughters remained
for his lifetime.
Jerry was a successful busi-
nessman working for several oil
companies before starting his own
company American Pipe Thread-
ing in 1979. With the decline of
the oil industry and recession
in the 1980s, Jerry was forced to
close a business that brought him
tremendous prosperity. There-
after, his entrepreneurship and
culinary skills coupled with his
outgoing spirit and love of people
inspired him to go into the restau-
rant business. He owned and op-
erated a restaurant/bar/bowling
alley in Houston and later a BBQ
takeout restaurant as well as a bar
known as The Frontier Palace in
Aransas Pass. As the recession
improved, he ultimately went
back to work in the oil industry
where his drive had him quick-
ly climbing the ladder of success
again at Schlumberger.
In 1990 Jerry had a debilitat-
ing stroke but it didn’t stop his

RV lifestyles
Beat Texas summer heat

stalling a thermostatically con-
trolled refrigerator vent fan at the
back or the top of the refrigera-
tor. This will pull the hot air away
from the refrigerator and im-
prove the performance. The food
will be kept cooler and the energy
consumption might also be less.
RV and Camper.org includes
a feature by Don Bobbit that in-
cludes changes in meal prepara-
tion that will reduce the heat in-
side an RV. Planning meals that
can be cooked outside on a grill
is a favorite summer idea. Since
RVs have exterior outlets, small
electric appliances can also be
used outside.
Bobbits final suggestion is to
plan fresh vegetables and fruits,
which are in season. Serving
them raw is not only healthy but
his opinion is that people prefer
cool foods when the weather is
hot.
Special to the Progress
Tim Kerigan, sales manag-
er at Ron Hoover in Rockport,
said many more RVers are living
full-time in the local coastal area.
With the South Texas summers,
staying cool in an RV can be a
challenge.
Kerigan pointed out some of the
manufacturers improvements in
a 2015 CrossRoads RV Carriage
fifth wheel that can make the heat
more bearable. He pointed out
additional insulation in the slide-
outs, which is made from a mate-
rial developed for NASA.
In this 40-foot RV, two-duct-
ed roof air conditioners are in-
stalled. Kerigan said two units are
needed in any RV over 36 feet.
This rig also includes additional
return air vents, which remove
hot air from the ceilings more ef-
fectively.
The windows in the rig were
tinted but also had double blinds
that could be adjusted from the
top or the bottom of the window.
One was a black screen while the
other provided more insulation.
While this brand new model
offers better cooling than previous
ones, it is possible to improve the
comfort of an older rig.
Mark Polk offers several practi-
cal suggestions on the Family Mo-
tor Home Association website.
His first suggestion is to choose
a site with shade. In the North Bay
area, those are difficult to find. Us-
ing awnings and keeping blinds

Jesusa R. Guevara
Jesusa R. Guevara passed
away on June 27, 2015 in Aran-
sas Pass, Jesusa wa born on No-
vember 27, 1926 in Victoria, Tx

driquez. She was a loving moth-

closed to reduce the amount of
heating due to the sun is another.
Russ and Tina DeMaris on
New RVer found a way to create
their own awnings and window
insulation. Using a roll of shade
cloth, they cut awnings that reach
from the roof to the ground.
Brass grommets were added at
top and bottom then with small
cleats placed along the edge of the
roof and stakes in the ground, the
awnings could shade whichever
part of the rig needed relief from
the sun.
The DeMarises also advocate
using reflective bubble insulation
cut to the size of each window.
Using tape that fastens to itself,
the insulation can be easily added
or taken off.
Polk also recommended in-
Although South Texas sum-
mers may seem unending to the
RVer, there are ways to meet the
challenge. Manufacturers are
providing improvements in new-
er models.
Using some of these easy solu-
tions can also bring some relief.
But if the three digit temperature
make the RV too hot for com-
fort, it might be time to go to the
swimming pool, go shopping or
to a movie or take a drive and en-
joy the sights.
And living here along the
coast, it can always be a good day
to hit the beach.
