Antoine Jones

Antione was a beloved son, brother, uncle, cousin, and friend. He left behind a legacy of love, kindness and quiet strength. Born in Harlem, NY, Antione brought light and life into the lives of everyone who knew him. As a child, he was full of energy and curiosity- always moving, laughing, and smiling. He had a calm, loving nature and a heart that was always open- ready to help, protect, and support those he cared for. Whether you knew him for a moment or a lifetime, you felt the warmth and sincerity of his presence.
He held a deep bond with his late mother, Barbara. That connection shaped much of the compassion and loyalty he carried throughout his life. Her memory lived on in him as he walked through life, exhibiting the values she instilled in him.
Antione had a deep love for '90s R&B and rap music. He was often found vibing to the music that shaped his youth. His signature '90s throwback style and fashion was a reflection of who he was: timeless, soulful, and original.
The ninth of ten children, he leaves behind eight siblings: Tyrone C. Jones, Eureka S. Jones, Uraina N. Jones, Stephanie Allen-Smith, Tracy R. Allen, Anjanette Jones- Perry, Russell Jones, and Brandy Jones. He had thirty-six nieces and nephews, sixteen great-nieces and great-nephews, and a host of cousins and friends. He was predeceased by his mother, Barbara E. Jones, his father, Jonathan Walters Sr., and his sister, Asia Robinson.
We will all forever cherish the memories we shared with him. Antione's spirit, style, and unwavering love will never be forgotten. He was a gift to us all.
