Very sad to hear about the loss of another great contributer to this site. He helped an awful lot of people and will be a huge loss.

My thoughts and prayers are with his family at this sad time.

RIP Jonesey. <3 :-(

RIP Jonesey. :(

This is just so very sad.
Yes, it is good if you are suffering not to have to suffer any more; but, Jonesey, you are already missed and will be missed very, very much. I cannot imagine a world without Jonesey. :(

Betcha Dave that you weren't expecting so many of us would miss you.

You were funny, you sent and received jokey e-mails, you made so much sense with your eloquent use of words and you loved cinnamon.

I for one will miss your lengthy e-mails and the fact that you were so much quicker in replying than I was. I just loved some of your little life stories and our lengthy discussions on TV programmes.

As you always signed your e-mails .... bye for now Dave..

I will say bye for now Persie xx

The boards here on GR won't be the same now that Jonesey has left us.

He was always so helpful and a courteous gentleman.

My thoughts are with his family and friends at this sad time.

So sad to read this.

Jonesey was a much respected member to these boards and his death will leave a sadness felt by many. His tips and advise were brilliant and certainly helped me in my early days on these boards.

Sincere condolences to Jonesey's Family and his friends, he will be missed.

Thank you Jonesey.

I always called him Davy Jones, as in The Monkeys

He signed off 'Davy'

Shed a few tears yesterday, today am smiling, thinking about the stories he told.

He told me stories about the city I was born in, his paternal ancestors came from the same place

It was only about a month ago that I went searching for headstones of my family and his.......buried in the same section of the cemetery

Tomorrow morning, I am hoping to print off this thread and send it, along with a card, to Mrs Jones and the family. I am sure that they will be comforted by the many kind and caring words expressed by those on the GR boards.

If anyone else wishes to add their condolences, please do so before tomorrow morning if possible. Thanks.
