Philip Adam Jones

In the early morning hours of January 7, 2026, PHILIP ADAM JONES was called to his eternal rest after suffering injuries sustained by an automobile accident on Sunday, January 4, 2026. Philip was born on September 9, 1977, at Sinai Hospital to parents Sharon R. Jones and the late Marteen S. Jones. Philip was educated in the Baltimore County School System, graduating with honors from Randallstown High School in 1995. Philip excelled in music and was a member of the Baltimore County Chorus of 1995. Philip enjoyed choral singing so much that he continued his education at North Carolina Central University (NCCU) in Durham, North Carolina, becoming a member of the NCCU Touring Choir. Philip’s love of accounting and business led to opportunities in banking and hotel management. At the time of his death, Philip was employed as a Night Auditor at the Pier 5 Hotel in Baltimore, MD, following many years at the Cross Keys Ramada Inn. Philip was also an avid bowler from the age of ten years old and amassed many trophies over the years. He also participated in a sanctioned youth travel league throughout the greater Baltimore/Southern, PA area. He was currently on the Oooh Yeah Team of the Friday Night Rollers Bowling League. Always a lover of pets, Philip enjoyed raising fish in aquariums and would occasionally find a stray Terrapin and try to bring it home. His love of pets continued as he grew older, and he would adopt three cats, Boots, Shadow, and Sparkle, that he considered his “babies”. Philip was always a pleasant and a happy go lucky fellow whose broad smile and sense of humor will be missed by all who knew and loved him. He was preceded in death by his earthly father, Marteen and uncles Michael Sr. and David “Ricky” Jones; paternal grandparents, Roy Jr. and Violet Jones and maternal grandparents, Negia and Eliza Mahan. Philip leaves to cherish his memory: a loving mother, Sharon; devoted sister, Martina; two aunts, Sylvia Mahan and Delphine Jones; two uncles, Sherman and Stanford Mahan; a special cousin and friend, Linda Mahan; goddaughter, De’jah Green; seven first cousins from the Mahan and Jones families; and many more extended family members and loving friends.
