Dear Mrs. Jones and Family:

Senator Jones was exceptionally helpful to me in the mid-1990s in my efforts to assist minority physicians seeking admittance to network panels of the major health plans in Greater Kansas City.

Our Dad
What a Husband, What a Father, What a Man. He was a pillar of strength and he did a lot in his 72 years. We will deeply miss him but we find peace in knowing that he lived a beautiful and full life.

Dear Jones Family,
My deepest sympathy during your time of lost. I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Jones at the state capital while he served as senator. I was a member of Jack & Jill Inc. at that time and our group served as pages for Senator Love. That set quite an example of life's possibilities. In the baseball game of life Mr. Jones has made it HOME!
May God strengthen and keep you.
GOD BLESS YOU

May the peace of God which passes all understanding rest with the entire family of Congressman Jones, knowing that he has preceeded all of us who remain, to a better more lovely place. Our prayers are with you.

Major League Baseball has lost one of its dearest brothers.I remember Mr. Jones pitched for the Reds whileI was living in Indianapolis.

May the dear Lord bless the Jones family at this most difficult time.

Mrs. Jones and Family,
I am saddened by the loss of such a wonderful person. I first met the Senator at the African American Legislative Caucus that was held at Pittsburg State University. He always had words of encouragement for me as I worked on my graduate degree. While we mourn his loss, heaven has gained an angel to look over us all.

WITH DEEP SYMPATHY TO THE FAMILY OF DET.SHERMAN JONES. HE WAS A VERY GOOD FRIEND OF OUR FATHER, JUDGE BEN FRANKLIN, IT IS SAD THAT OUR PARENTS MUST GO BEYOND. BE STRONG AND THINK OF HIM AT PEACE AND WITHOUT PAIN. OUR PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU ALL. ALICMARIE, BEN JR,AND VIVIENNE..

Mrs.Jones, You have our deepest sympathy. May God bless you and keep you in his loving care.

My condolences and prayers; Sherman Jones is an honored member of the New York Mets Hall of Records website.
