Our prayers go out to you in this moment of sorrow. I know my family will miss his smiling face and how sweet he was to everyone. We used to stay in the mobile home park behind the resturant and we never saw him without a smile on his face. It's not going to be the same without him. There are only a few places I will go for eggrolls and he was the BEST one. Also my husband loves the wings from there. I know that his memory will live on. Again I am sorry for your pain and sorrow right now.

We are humbly grateful for Jone. Arriving in the U.S. in his teens, he adjusted well & fitted right into the community. He was well rounded, greeting people with a smile and addressing them by name. He worked hard through the years providing for his family, but no one can deny...he was a good husband, father, son, grandson, brother, nephew, uncle, cousin, friend. My families here in MS & TN, as well as NC, PA, MD, ID & Augusta join me in humble thanksgiving for Jone.
