The Lubbock Lions Club will honor long-time Texas State Representative Delwin Jones in late January at the Scottish Rite Learning Center in Lubbock.

The 90-year-old Jones served in the Texas House from 1964 to 1972 and again from 1989 to 2011. Jones most recently had an unsuccessful bid in the 2014 special election for Senate District 28.

Jones was involved in legislation that created a board of regents system for all Texas Universities.

In his youth, Jones attended Lubbock High School and Texas Tech.
