My condolences to you and your family.
Dear Family and Friends of “Jonesy” (as I knew him to be called). I am a neighbor of his, and I just learned of his passing. I am deeply sorry for your loss. He was a dear friend and we had many conversations on the “Wall” we were lived. I always enjoyed our conversations, and he will be terribly missed. As we usually said in parting “be cool.” Jonesy, I wish you peace and your new place of wonder, and I thank you for your friendship. My condolences to all, and I wish you strength and comfort.
My deepest sympathy. I always enjoyed his beautiful smile and warm daily greeting when I was out walking my dog. Next door neighbor
