    Dear Jones Family
    I am deeply sorry for your loss. we are aware that death is an enemy that we as humans can not defeat. Yet our heavenly father has promised us that, through his son Christ Jesus, he will eliminate death forever(1Corinthians15: 26).This is a wonderful promise, but GOD He did not stop there, he has also given us hope for our dead love ones. He speaks of a time when he will bring them to life again, to live on a paradise earth.(John5:28,29 & Psalm 37:29). Yes, theses hopes give us the strength to continue to carry on at this most difficult time. May you and the family of Donald Wayne be strengthen by the love that GOD shows to all.

    My birth mother Teresa Jones is the wife of Donald Jones, Jr. I want to extend my deepest condolences to the Jones family. Don seemed like a very good man and he was always kind and loving to Teresa and accepted her into his family. My thoughts and prayers are with his sons and daughter and their families.

    I am proud to consider Don a friend. Though I haven’t seen Don for many years I think about him frequently. Years ago Don took me under his wing and taught me the art of selling. I will always remember his positive demeanor, gift with the gab, and work ethic. He was, “not bad for a 33 model”. Very sorry for your loss.

    Dear Jones Family,
    It is with deepest sympathy I extend my condolence on the loss of your beloved. I had the opportunity to briefly work with “Mr. Don” at Head Start and enjoyed his smile, warmth, and kindness. His enthusiasm for life was contagious and he influenced me to dance like no one is watching! He is sincerely missed!
