In 2018, in a post on Facebook for Father’s Day, Jones opened up about fatherhood. He wrote:

Happy Father’s Day to all of the fathers out there!! Never underestimate your role in your kid’s lives…I learned that a bit later in my life, but I’m so glad I finally figured it out because being a father is hands down one of the greatest blessings!! ((:0)) My daddy always used to tell me that “once a task has just begun, never leave it ‘til it’s done, be the labor great or small, do it well or not at all.” That has stuck with me ever since, & without a doubt has influenced my work ethic…I’m forever grateful to my father for working so hard to keep a roof over our head back in the 30’s during The Great Depression when we were living in Chicago, & later in Bremerton…It’s a beautiful thing to look back on these photos because it reminds me of his love & how he never gave up on us. I’m telling y’awl, it’s up to you to create the type of relationship you want to have with your kid, & it’s never too late to start!

His last Facebook post was in March.
