Phyllis Marie "PJ", 86, of Philadelphia, PA, Churchville, PA, Bensalem, PA, Naples, FL, and Long Beach Island, NJ, entered into eternal life on Wednesday, November 6, 2019. Phyllis was born in Philadelphia, PA, November 9, 1932, the daughter of the late Viola (Price) Crockett. After graduating from Stetson High School, she became skilled in handcrafted cigar making. She also worked retail for Silo's Appliances. She then married the love of her life, her "main squeeze", Joseph Thomas Jones, Sr. on February 16, 1951, at 18 years old. This extended her love of family to now include children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. In 1973, Phyllis and Joe chose a second home in Naples, FL to enjoy the sunshine and provide a destination for family and friends to visit. Phyllis and Joe were active members of Windstar Country Club in Naples, FL and Frankford Torresdale Country Club in Philadelphia, PA. Survived by son Joseph T. Jones, Jr. (Andrea), daughter-in-law Linda Jones, grandchildren Joseph T. Jones III "The Rascal" (Ingrid Kaszas), Jamie Lyn Englebert (Chris), Jennifer Jones (Joseph Silva), Kenneth Jones (Sarah), Jaclyn Marie Jones, Erin Kuptsow (David), great-grandchildren Greta and Mattias, Wesley and Ryan, Jocelyn and Peyton, Kara, Kenneth, Grayson, Nolan, and Madison, Morgan, Mackenzie, Abigail, and Reuben. She also leaves behind sisters Doris Rafter (Charles) and Helen Muncie, and brother Edward Crockett (Kathy), and many family members of whom she adored. In addition to her mother, she was preceded in death by husband Joe, brothers David Crockett and Leroy Crockett, and son Charles "Chuck" Jones. Family and friends were the cornerstone of Phyllis' life. She loved to party! She will be deeply missed yet lovingly remembered for years to come.
