Mrs. Jones, I really can't find the words to express how the two of you have touched my life. You and Rev. Jones were there for me when I needed someone to talk too. You don't know how you two made me feel. I considered you my second family. I can just see him now up in heaven with my dad, singing in that heavenly choir. God bless and keep you all.

Dr Jones, Baptized me when I converted from Catholic to Baptist 11yrs ago. I was scared but, he assured me that everything was gonna be alright. He told me that the devil was mad, but assured me that my decision would be one that I would be proud of. So far, so good. I thank GOD for letting him touch my life. Thank you to Dr Jones' family for sharing him with all of us!! May GOD continue to give you comfort in this time of sorrow..... To be absent from the body is to be PRESENT WITH THE LORD!!!!

We know Rev. Jones will be missed but he left a memorable legacy and impact on the Milwaukee community. I thank God for allowing me to cross paths with Rev. Jones and his lovely wife. As long as Way of the Cross stands, it will be a reminder of his love for God and this community. All praises to God!

Love,

To the family and loved ones of the Rev. Dr. George Jones Jr. it is with a heavy heart that I send my deepest condolences. Rev. Jones baptized me and was my pastor for many years. Although I have not lived in Milwaukee for over a decade he remained to be my pastor in my heart. I have compared every pastor and church to Rev. Jones and the Way of the Cross M.B.C. and I can unequivocally say that none can hold a light. I will always hold Rev. Jones with the highest regard. He will be greatly missed.
