Levi Jones Jr. was a native of Tampa, Florida and was born on May 19, 1967. He accepted the Lord as his Savior and was faithful in his spiritual walk at St. John Progressive Missionary Baptist Church, Reverend Dr. Bartholomew Banks, Sr., Pastor until his passing. Levi was the owner of E & J Party Services. He was also a faithful member of International Free and Accepted Modern Masons, Inc. and Order of the Eastern Star. Levi was surely one of a kind. No one could have asked for a better husband, father, brother, grandfather and friend. Levi also enjoyed watching his favorite team Alabama Crimson Tide "Roll Tide", fishing, studying the bible with his Masonic brothers and being with his family. He was always the life of the party and he loved dancing. He always ensured that everyone had a good time. He was the type of person that would give you the shirt off his back or the food off his plate. He also loved being able to help others.
