I am deeply sorry for your loss. I remember Coach Jones from Messick High, as a kind and cheerful person.  May God’s grace and love give you comfort during this time. 

Blessings and prayers for you all!

To the family of ‘Coach Jones’ my sincerest condolences on your loss.  He was truly loved by all of his students. He will be missed. I will keep you all in my prayers.

To the family of Mr. Jones, my condolences are with you. My mom and I are his former colleagues.
The Coleman Family

Chauncey and Alison Burton offer our heartfelt condolences to Gloria Jones, children and other family members of Clarence Jones. We have lived next door to the Jones for the past 30 years. We would often see CJ doing yard work. In the 70s, he was one of my mom’s favorite players on the Memphis State basketball team. She was totally geeked when I told her he and his family lived next door.   May the precious memories of Coach Jones comfort each of you during this difficult time.

Just a great man!  Clarence always respected others.  He was an amazing athlete.  He was a multi-sport athlete in high school and
had many opportunities.  CJ would have surely had more a more
prominent role at many schools other than (what was then MSU).
This is not to diminish his achievements for the Tigers.  

As a teammate of Clarence for two years at MSU, I can testify to his ability, competitiveness, and commitment to the team.  It was a privilege to get to journey through life with him for that brief period of time.  I know all of his teammates feel the same. 

May God comfort all who mourn for this our friend,

Darrell Bridges
(MSU Tiger 1973-1975)

You were the coach at Trezevant the entire time I attended.  You were always professional and positive towards the student's.  You so be missed
