BRO. WILEY JONES 1939 ~ 2014 "...I rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my GOD, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness."

GOD Has Called Home another one of Our Soldiers... and a GRrrrrreat Soldier NDeed!
Bro Wiley Jones wore Many Hats, though the Main Two were, that of Head Usher & Chairman of the Trustee Board for Years! However, to name a few, he also worked with the "Methodist... Men" & our "Feed the Homeless" Ministry. I've been a Member of Phillips Temple CME Church since birth (over 50 years) and can Truly say Bro Jones has spent more time at the "Temple" than Most Pastors & Members and can probably only be Rivaled by the Church Secretary... He Took Great Care of All of Us, from the Church House, to the Pastors, Members and Children! In addition to him Reppin' Us Well on an Annual Conference level (where he was usually a Delegate).
Yes, Bro Wiley Got the Job Done and Insured Our Safety on Many Levels. When Problems occurred, Most times they were handled before Our Awareness and without Incident.
Later, when Bro Wiley's Wife Sis Eddie joined the Temple and began to Work (as if she had been there All Along), they became the Unstoppable Dynamic Duo.
Bro Jones (born the same day as My Daughter & My Church BFF Perdita Smith) had a Fun sense of Humor and LOved to play the Dozens, while jokingly complaining of he was Quittin' because he was Old & Tired... Yet, he Never Quit until GOD sat him down...Such a Great Example of a True Warrior Of Christ! To Know him was to LOve him and though my Heart breaks of the Loss I KNOW BRO WILEY JONES IS WITH GOD!!!
Though his Son Thyran (2009) preceded him in Death, Please Pray for Sis Eddie, their Daughter (Regina), Grand Children and All their Family & Friends that GOD will Strengthen Us through this Most Tumultuous Time...Bro Wiley was the Ultimate "DoorKeeper" for the House of the LOrd and Reminiscent of the Song, "May The Work I've Done Speak for Me"
May His Soul Forever Rest In the Awesome Power Of Peace... ~jOY!!!
