To The Jones Family;

It is with much regret that I read of the passing of your loved one. May God wrap his arms and cover each one of you in the blood of Jesus during this time.

It has been a long time since I have seen any of you (Boo's homegoing).

We all loved William, but God loved him best. If we continue to walk in his WORD, we will all meet again one day.

To the Jones Family:

Uncle William will be missed very much. Even though he was not my uncle by blood; he was an uncle to me and all of my children by love. I will miss see him sitting on the front porch in the corner talking junk to me and making sure that I am behaving myself. To the family Charnette, Uncle Chuck, Vincent, and Duke please stay strong. Just remember there's no more suffering and pain and Uncle William is in a better place right now. Keep your head up high and strong because that is what he would want all of us to do.

Love You All,
Twink, Toni, Tiesha, Dre, Bus, and Stasha

In memories of my loving uncle. You are one I will never forget. As a child I remember the candy bags, as a teenager I remember the strong tone and as an adult I remember the big hugs and kisses. When I decided to move away and start a new life for me, Tracia and Vic you told me never to forget where home was. As the years pass and I came up and down 95 I always knew I had to stop by 3411 Lawson Street to see my FAMILY. I knew on those beautiful springs and summer days I could find you setting in that same spot my granddaddy held for some many years. My heart is heavy and the tears flow strong, but I know you are safe and at peace. I know you are about to start a new beginning and there is no end to this one. I love you with my hold heart and more. Save a place for me and tell Granddaddy, Grandma, Auntie, Uncle Boo and Tony I said I know they are doing wonderful and loving the higher heights.

My son was a young boy when Bill became his grandfather! He still remembers Grandpa Bill as "his" role model. Granpa Bill he said, carried me places and we shared good memories. He showed me how to have fun in just being a little boy! There's a song that goes "if, I can help somebody as I live this life." Well, let this be a testimony to Bill Jones!

He was a blessing from God for this child!

Thank you - Grandpa Bill!
