On Thursday, February 11, 2021, God said, come home and take your rest. Albert was born November 7, 1939 to the late Louis Jones, Sr. and Mary Lillie Belle Jones. Albert was an awesome father and grandfather and uncle to all those who knew him. Albert was a brick layer by trade he worked hard to provide for his family until he retired. Albert was predeceased by five brothers, Louis Jones, Jr., BeWayne Jones, Richard Jones, John Jones and William Jones; one sister, Jeanette Randolph; as well as a daughter, Audrey Jones.

He was educated in the Norfolk Public School System.  Albert enjoyed cooking and giving to his family that need him, and giving wisdom and advice to his children and grandchildren that he loved so dearly.

Left to treasure Albert’s memories is his wife, Shirley Jones: Sisters, Rose Rather of Lorton, VA, Gloria McClain of Queens New York , Marilyn Ingram of Norfolk, VA and Ruth Sparks of Norfolk, VA. and Brother Curly Jones of Norfolk, VA. Daughter Sabrina Whitaker (Raymond) of Petersburg, VA and Son Albert T. Jones, Jr.(Nadine) of Norfolk, VA.
