This comment of the day comes from Sadly_Missing_U, who wrote about Don Diego Jones.
On June 8, 2011 will mark the one year anniversary of my co-worker, friend, father, husband, brother, son, Don Diego Jones. Don was a multi talented opera singer and a well loved young man. He was my co-worker, and always made us laugh. Don sang for Coretta King’s funeral. His voice was golden pure and natural. On June 8, 2010 someone stole and rob so many of us of our Don. Don’s body was found in Fort DuPont Park. A homicide victim found shot in Southeast Washington last week was identified Tuesday as a 43-year-old classical singer from Temple Hills who frequently performed in the chorus of the Washington National Opera. Don Diego Jones, of the 2100 block of Anvil Lane, was found dead in Fort Dupont Park about 4:30 p.m. on June 8, D.C. police said, adding that his body was on the ground near his parked car. The slaying remains under investigation. His case is still open. Someone knows something!!!! This man was a father and husband, and would give you the shirt off of his back. I’m sure Don pleaded for his life, before being shot. He was a gentle teddy bear, with a beautiful smile. Don I miss u “sooooo” much. I think of you everyday. The pain at times is unbearable. I know you new Jesus, and I know you are with him, but it doesn’t stop the pain of losing you. I believe Don was the victim of robbery. If anyone has any information on our Don please tell!!! “Do not” let this case continue to be a cold case file. Missing U Don!!!! Love You!!!! Tears!!!!
