So very sorry to hear the sad news. Spoke with him 2 weeks before his passing. He was as jovial & pleasant as always. I could not believe until another of his childhood & best friend Billy Cauldwell sent me a text of the Service Program with Gene's picture.
What a great guy. He will be truly missed.
I also grew up with him. I lived on 98th Street where his wife Janice lived. What great memories we all had of our childhood.
I am so very sorry for your loss.

My Poppie!
All of our conversations normally included a story and a joke. His go to was his favorite story of him eating my chips while I was sleep during a road trip. But his actions always told me that family was important and they mean the most. He created a world where each person in the family was important and being together was important. That is how I pattern myself and make my decisions in my life. Family First just like my Pop. He was always a man of his word and the ultimate entertainer. Every conversation we had he told me he was proud of me, how strong I was and how much I was like him. Those words I am going to miss hearing but will carry with me forever. I love you Poppie and I will always be Poppies girl.

First and foremost I just want to say this man that we bury is one of the most significant people in my life.I had a father who I loved and respected and I'm not taking anything away from him but Popie was hands on with everyone, I appreciated that. Thank you for the part you played in my life. You will truly be missed! ("You know me Tre")

Th Dash by Linda Ellis
I read of a man who stood to speak
At the funeral of a friend
He referred to the dates on the tombstone
From the beginning...to the end
He noted that first came the date of birth
And spoke the following date with tears,
But he said what mattered most of all
Was the dash between those years
For that dash represents all the time
That they spent alive on earth.
And now only those who loved them
Know what that little line is worth
For it matters not, how much we own,
The cars...the house...the cash.
What matters is how we live and love
And how we spend our dash.
So, think about this long and hard.
Are there things you'd like to change?
For you never know how much time is left
That can still be rearranged.
If we could just slow down enough
To consider what's true and real
And always try to understand
The way other people feel.
And be less quick to anger
And show appreciation more
And love the people in our lives
Like we've never loved before.
If we treat each other with respect
And more often wear a smile,
Remembering this special dash
Might only last a little while
So, when your eulogy is being read
With your life's actions to rehash...
Would you be proud of the things they say
About how you spent YOUR dash?
—-
Our Uncle’s dash was full of happiness, laughter and sweet memories. He was an honorable man that meant the world to us. We will forever honor that dash and what the memories in it meant to us.
Lovingly,
Doris Noreen, Christine, Jatae, Madi & Taylor

Q: What will you miss most about Eugene?
A: I will miss having weekly conversations with my uncle and my friend.
Uncle Eugene, had a very caring spirit that was genuine. He would hold long conversations that you didn't mind listening to. He was a Realist. He would be honest with you no matter what. To know Uncle gene was to love him. I am Uncle Joseph Moore's daughter Rhonda and from the very first time I spoke to Uncle Gene, I felt like a had met a new friend that I could sincerely trust. If he said he was going to do something, you could be assured he would do just what he said he would do.
Long Live The Legend, May The Life He lived speak for Him. Uncle Gene, You will always be in our hearts.

I‘ve got sunshine on a cloudy day,
When it's cold outside,
I've got the month of May.
I guess you'd say,
"What can make me feel this way?"
My Uncle.
Eugene Jones was a giant among men - a father, uncle, grandfather, great-grandfather, cousin, brother, and friend. He radiated light and was intentional with his words. He was caring, thoughtful, and an awesome dance partner. He loved truly and fully. If you ever had the honor to be in his presence, you experienced a true people person. He knew how deeply I loved him. I told him often that I loved him, and he loved me too. Those were our last words exchanged. I will miss our hour-long conversations where he would often lay on his sofa as we chatted about everything and nothing. Just seeing his name pop up on my phone gave me an instant feeling of joy.
On Tuesday, I watched him peacefully transition from this life. I stood beside him as he always stood beside me. I am grateful to have experienced so many beautiful moments with him. I got so many big hugs and kisses. So many laughs, and he wiped countless tears of mine. I am a better person, and the world is a better place because he was here.
A true lover of The Temptations, I KNOW he would have been proud of himself that he was became sunshine on a cloudy day in May. He is, was, and will always be my sunshine. While my heart still feels like there’s a piece missing, I know where it is. I know who holds that piece always and forever.
If you've reached this far, I hope you can love and be loved so deeply. Be the light. Be sunshine on a cloudy day.
I love my uncle. Always.

Q: What will you never forget about Eugene?
A: Uncle Genie was my person. I talked to him about everything. He was my “Great” Uncle and that is what he truly was—great. I’m going to miss his impressions, his laugh, his stories about his sisters, and his hugs!
