He is survived by his father, Troy ( Antoinette ) Jones, Sr.; mother, Erica M. Gaston; brothers, DeJon Jones, Evan Parker, and Eugene Parker; sisters, Victoria and Katera Jones; stepbrothers, Shylan Young and Myron Craig, Jr.; stepsister, Sierra Young; paternal grandfather, James ( Mary ) Jones, Sr.; maternal grandmother, Margaret Riddick; godparents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Perry; godsisters, Tiffany and Ashley Perry; several uncles, aunts, and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
