Condolences & Tributes
Add A CondolenceJames D.E. Jones was a great "Big Brother" to me and many others in our Howard University fraternity during our college years. Those of us who pledged after him knew him as "Big Brother Jimmy Jones". My sincere sympathy to his family and others who shared his life from then until now.
Jim, or "Doctor Jones" as I sometimes called him, was a dear friend and colleague. He had a sharp mind and memory for great detail that I envied. We last met over lunch at Busboys & Poets, several years ago, and would exchange messages and greetings each year, especially since I moved from the DC area. I am lucky to have known him and Shirley. My condolences to her and family.
Dad was an amazing man whose life touched many, many more. I love you. I'll miss you. Rest well; you earned it.
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
