Helping Families and Friends Honor Their Loved One

Terrell Jones was born on November 3, 1998, in Wichita, KS. He passed away peacefully on September 10, 2024, in Little Rock, AR. He was 25 years old.

Terrell loved his family fiercely, from biological family to friends that became family. He was at his happiest spending time around loved ones. Terrell took pride in being a hard worker. He never missed a day of work. He had earned a promotion right before his health problems began. He was discovered to have an inoperable AVM which caused him to have a series of strokes. After spending months in and out of the hospital, we brought him to his grandmother’s home in Arkansas. The last months of his life were spent being showered with love.

Terrell is survived by his parents Amber Ray and Herbert Jones Jr. His grandmother Mary Patry. His siblings TeAndre Ray and Shakita, Herbert III, Tisalie, DeShane, Kamaronte, Montez, Cortez, and Kay Jones. Also left to mourn his loss are numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, and friends. He will be deeply missed.

A Celebration of Life will be held in Wichita, KS at a time and place to be announced. We invite all to attend.

    My life was immeasurably blessed by your presence in it. And my life will be immeasurably diminished by your absence. I was proud and honored to be your grandma. And will miss you for the rest of my life. I love you my sweet guy! Grandma

    I am so very sorry this happened. He was such a sweet kid and so young. I will always remember his sweet grin when I asked him what was going on or how he was doing. I know no words can help and I know he will be sorely missed by all that knew him and by his momma, grandma and brother.

    Terrell, It is with great sadness that I am writing this post. Where do I even begin to express the love and honor to have known you. It is difficult to know that I will never again be able to hear your laughter or see that sweet smile on your face. I will greatly miss the ” I love you ‘s and your warm inviting hugs on the days I so needed them the most. You were such an inspiration love , kindness. Heaven got a really “special angel ” that’s for sure . Go find Toni and give her a hug for me. You will be tremendously missed. I love you always , until we meet again. Shonda ( heart Auntie )

    How does a beautiful, playful boy grow into a man in the blink of an eye? And how can that beautiful young man leave this life so soon?

    I am so sorry for the suffering Terrell suffered, so impressed with his sweetness and grace through an illness that never quit taking from him, and how he bravely accepted the unacceptable.

    I know he was loved and cherished by his precious mother and his incredible grandmother who loved through their actions and hands-on care.

    Amber, TeAndre, and dear Mary, you are all in my heart. Let love heal your unimaginable loss.

    Amber, I am so sorry for your loss. A child is such a blessing and to loose one is devastating. I have known you for a long time, and can honestly say you are one of the most caring, loving and genuinely good caring individuals that I have had the privilege to know. You are in my prayers, know that you were a good mother to Terrell until he went home to his Heavenly Father.

      Thank you so much Bertha. Thank you for bringing Ronnie to his Celebration of Life. It meant so much to have him there. Your whole family always welcomed me with open arms solely because of my friendship with Ronnie and I can’t never tell you how much that has meant to me over the years.

    Terrell this is so different, My heart is crying, for two reasons, 1st You will no longer be trapped in your own body, and secondly I will miss you dearly , I am so happy your mom shared & trusted her baby boy to be in our presence, the joy your smile & kindness brings to everyone will always be embraced in my heart,
    May God keep your Mom and Family strong, You’ll never be Forgotten.

  • Amber Ray Posted January 22, 2025 7:28 AM

    Words could never express how much I miss you. It’s been over 4 months and it doesn’t get any easier. You were my firstborn son. You made me a better person. I feel like half of my heart is missing. I miss that beautiful smile. I’m so sorry all of this happened to you. It’s so unfair. I loved you from the second I found out I was pregnant and I’ll love you until the day I die. I am so proud to be your mother. I’ll make sure your memory lives on. Rest In Love Terrell
