"I have fought a good fight; I have finished my course. I have kept the faith." -2 Timothy 4:7

Mr. Percy Lorenzo Jones, known to some as "Lo", departed this life on Saturday, June 20, 2026, in the Colonial Heights Rehabilitation Center with his sister and brother-in-law by his side.

Percy was born on April 14, 1947, in Greensville County, VA to the late Mr. Percy and Mrs. Mary Katie Bobbitt Jones. He was the second oldest of seven children raised by a single mother. Percy migrated to Atlanta, GA and spent 40+ years. He spent a couple of years recently in Augusta, GA until he previously moved back home to Virginia. He resided with his sister, Annie E. Parham, in South Chesterfield, VA until his health declined. Percy accepted Christ into his life and was baptized in 2002 at Greater Springfield Baptist Church under the leadership of Rev. Tracy B. Wheeler, Sr. in Atlanta, GA.

Percy was preceded in death by both of his parents, Percy and Mary Jones; his grandparents, Williamson and Louise Jones and Henry and Emily Bobbitt; two of his sisters, Margaret Marie Jones and Jennifer Jean Jones; one nephew, Leroy Conner; and one great nephew, O'Byran Mapp.

Percy worked as a certified plumber for many years. He also loved to do other jobs, such as electrical and carpentry. He and his former wife, Krista, started a business called "Lorenzo Home Improvement", which dissolved after twelve years. He loved life and lived his to the fullest. He enjoyed cooking, dancing, fishing, listening to music, and having lots of fun with family and friends.

During the past 3 years, Percy was cared for by his two devoted nieces, Natalie Mapp and Kimberly Taylor along with her husband, Danny Taylor. Previously, he was married to Krista Printup of Atlanta, GA and gained two daughters, Enjoli Edmonds, and Marleeshia Printup.
