Please share a memory of Eddie to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Mr. Eddie Jones, Jr., 66, of Utica, formerly of Brooklyn, NY, passed away on Tuesday, November 3, 2020 at St. Elizabeth Medical Center in Utica. Eddie was born in Brooklyn, on April 26, 1954, the son of Eddie and Cora (Paschal) Jones. He was raised and educated in Brooklyn and earned a bachelor’s degree in Sociology from St. John’s University in NY City. For many years, Eddie was employed as a youth counselor in NY City dedicated to helping others. Fastidious about his appearance, he had a particular NY sense of style. He loved gospel music and attending church services. He was especially helpful to the older adults he would routinely encounter within the community. Eddie relocated to Utica just two years ago, and during his brief time here, was a dedicated volunteer with various organizations and was loved and respected by so many. He was especially proud of his involvement in and support from the 12-step community. Mr. Jones is survived by four sisters, Diane Jones, Gail Jones, Kim (Steve) Rice, Glenda (Chris) McDaniel; one brother, Craig (April) Jones; his aunt, Betty Jean Searls,; nephew Kenyon Burvick,; niece Stephanie Jones; as well as many other nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents, Eddie and Cora. The family would like to extend a special thanks to Melissa, and Tone for their friendship and support. There is also a special thank-you to his “big sis” Marlene Davis for 36 years of loving friendship and support without waiver. In keeping with the wishes of the family, there will be no visitation and a private service. Arrangements have been entrusted to Heintz Funeral Service, Inc., Utica.
