Not sure what to say?

As a drummer in Fort Worth, God Bless. You opened for the Beatles!!!

I met Mickey while working on the set of "the fighting temptations." He was so cordial and down to earth. You just felt comfortable around him. He was one of a kind. Sad to know he is gone. Mickey, you will be missed. You left an impression on me and on the film industry and in the hearts of anyone who watches him or has had the honor to know him.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always. Mickey was so funny on Home Improvement because Laff is on television and it's the funniest show. Condolences to Mickey loved ones.

My name is Barry Asher, professional bowler. I met Mickey in the about 1972, he would often come and watch my bowl at the Showboat in Las Vegas.
He was a wonderful person who would help anybody at any time!
RIP My Friend

My name is Mike Arturi. I am the drummer with the 60's era band The Lovin' Spoonful. I had the very briefest communication with Mr. Jones after I wrote to him to let him know how impressed I was with his DVD. He wrote back to me and was extremely kind. I invited him to our next Spoonful show in CA but the band hasn't been booked in the area. Mr. Jones is in my prayers and I feel very fortunate to have the brief connection I had with this very accomplished man.

Our band opened for Kenny Rogers and the first edition for two weeks at lucifers club in Boston Massachusetts in 1972.! We got to know Mickey and Kenny quite well.. especially Mickey who was the "salt of the earth" type of person!!!
Our group "Sourhern Flavor" never forgot his kind words and musical advise.. I'm sure he will be sorely and greatly missed!!!
RIP Mickey!!!

I remember Mickey Jones as the loveable Pete on Home Improvement. I thank him for sharing his talent with us. My condolences to the Jones family. Psalms 90:10

Mickey was a kind soul who gave of his heart and his time . Mickey worked with us up here in Canada a few years back for a Child Abuse Charity event. He was an angel. He will be truly missed. Heaven just found another angel!!

So sorry to hear of his passing, I first saw him when he was the drummer for The First Edition. He was a multi-talented man.
