Lee Jones

Somewhere in my archives I believe I have an original MoD PR (RAF) brochure outlining the new team with the said leader's mugshot covered by a pasted-in snap of his replacement...
Does anyone know what happened to original leader Lee Jones following his post-Service time in Australia and Jordan, please? I kept in touch for some years after we met at the Team end-of-season dining-in night at CFS in 1975 (when Lee was captain of King Hussein's air academy, where later he generously set up a Bulldog 'diamond nine' for my employer for an air-to-air sortie down Wadi Rum - halcyon days). Alas, I did not retain contact with Lee, whose in-laws were in Ringwood and to which area (perhaps?) he and 'Billy' retired, probably in the '90s?
Earlier this year I was able to renew acqauaintance with Dickie Duckett from that same period; the older I get, the further back I look...
