Heaven has welcomed a true southern gentleman that offered a quiet yet humble presence for all to be inspired by. Praise GOD for his commitment and to his obedience to GOD's commands. Allison you were truly blessed with a wonderful Father and Mother.
Allison..., I hope you see, and take to heart the messages you see here. Your dad was loved by so many, as he gave so much love to so many. As you have read, and you and I saw, words were not what he did, actions were his thing. I can't put into words how many times I walked up the driveway and was greeted by that smile. This man held me down and talked me through so many situations! Eddie Jones Jr is one of those angels that our Lord put here to keep things straight. Be assured that he's resting at the foot of the Lord, holding the hand of Teresa (your mom, my God mom), and smiling at how you are the lady they created by the glory of God. Call me! Love Ya God sis!

Mr. Eddie Jones rendered high quality nursing services to veterans at the Charlie Norwood VA Hospital. Too, Mr. Jones exhibited enormous compassion for his patients. He had a very quiet demeanor and was very kind to the veterans. My prayer is that God will comfort and console his family in a mighty way. Lorraine W. Jackson, RN
Mr. Eddie Jones a very nice quiet gentleman with a soft spoken voice. I never heard Mr. Jones raise the volume of his voice. Sometimes I would see him not only at Trinity CME Church as we are both members , but at his favorite gas station Circle K on Wheeler Road in Augusta, Ga next to Gary's Hamburgers. Mr. Jones sang in The Mens Choir at Trinity CME Church Augusta. I know God definitely has a place for Mr. Jones and he's still singing. Cliff W. Terrell
