Rest well Mr. Jones.

R.I.P. Mr Jones. Another angel gained his wings. Praying for your family and loved ones 🙏🏽🙏🏽😞

It is with great sympathy to read of the passing away of Terrance. Alan, Tina, and Issac look to the hills from which commit our help, our help commit from the Lord. Weeping may endure for the night, but joy commit in the morning. My our good Lord and Savior give you the strength to endure during this time in your lives. May the loving memories of Terrance be of great comfort unto you. To be absent from the body is to be in the presence of God. Terrance has fought a good fight, has kept the faith and is now resting in the arms of God Almighty King awaiting that great getting up day where all God children will come together, join hands, and sing praises unto the King of how we all made it over, where every day will be like Sunday and Sabbath will have no end. Oh what a time that will be. May God shine down upon you and keep you in his care. Anthony (Tony) Waters Riverview, Florida

Psalm 23: 1-6 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever.

My dear brother Terrence Lee Jones, I'm just so lost for Words, heart 💔 broken and cannot express how I feel at this moment. But one thing I do know, as we sung this song together many times, "If I Perish, Let Me Perish, I'm Going, I'm Going, To Meet The King".

My beloved and dear brother, who will forever be in my heart ❤ has definitely gone to meet our LORD, Our SAVIOR, AND KING, JESUS. Treasure the Memories of Your Love Ones in Your Hearts 💕 now and forevermore! Missed, but NEVER EVER FORGOTTEN! R.I.H. WITH JESUS!
