Obituary for Barry L. Jones

It is with profound shock and the heaviest of hearts that we announce the unexpected passing of Barry L. Jones, 65, of Stoughton Massachusetts on July 14, 2026. Born on November 20, 1960, in Boston MA, Barry was the beloved child of Shirley (Jones) Delibero and Louis Jones (Deceased).

Barry lived life with an infectious joy and had a successful career in flooring as owner of J&W Capet II. Barry was a passionate collector of coins and watches as well as memorabilia of his beloved Boston sports teams.

Everyone who knew Barry was aware of the fact that he “never met a stranger” and was always quick to start a conversation and make a new friend. Barry loved to travel and enjoyed many vacations and cruises all over the world and particularly loved Martha’s Vineyard with his beloved wife Maricruz and his many friends.

His sudden departure leaves a void that can never be filled, and he will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Barry is survived by his loving spouse Maricruz Jones, his mother Shirley (Jones) Delibero, his brother Derek Jones, his stepsons Roberto, Raul and Javier Garcia, his aunt Louise Ramos, his uncle Irving Merrilles, his niece Stephanie Jones, his nephew Derek Jones, Jr and numerous cousins.

A Celebration of Barry’s life will be held at Dolan Funeral Home, 460 Granite Avenue, EAST MILTON SQUARE, Wednesday, July 22nd at 6:00 PM. Visiting hours will begin at 4:00 PM and continue after the service until 8:00 PM. Family and friends invited. Interment Saint Anthony Cemetery, 167 E. Falmouth Highway, E.

    Barry made every room he entered a brighter, happier and more loving place. I loved the way that he could get everybody talking and having fun. So few people have that talent these days. He has been such a true friend to my brother and our family for so many years now. Please accept my sincere condolences. RIP, Barry, thanks for the good times.

    To Shirley and family. I am very sorry to hear about the sudden passing of Barry. There are no words that can truly ease the pain of such a devastating loss.. I want you to know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Barry's beautiful smile had a way of bringing light into a room, and that light I always remember and know it will never be forgotten. I pray you, Derek and his wife find comfort in the love that surrounds you and in the countless lives Barry impacted. May Barry's beautiful spirit always be remembered, and may you find strength one moment at a time. With my deepest sympathy, Carol Stallings Reynolds

    To my good friend aka BBB. Big,Black and Beattiful. Played football and wrestled with Barry starting in our freshman year. Star in wrestling. If he only had a mean bone in his body. Great family-thank you Louis, Shirley and Derik for sharing him with me, plenty to go around. Meri Cruz, he was so lucky that you found him. If possible you made him a beter man.

    My deepest Condolences to Barry's wife, mother and family. I only knew Barry as a customer at my bank, but he went out of his way to brighten the day of everyone in here, employee or customer. He even brought us back vanilla from one of his Mexico trips because he knew we loved baking. Barry was a customer we all wanted to take when he came in because his joy and laughter was truly infectious. He was one of the kindest people I ever met. He will truly be deeply missed.

    When I was 6 or 7, my family had a reunion and reserved the back room of an Irish pub that had a huge screen playing the pats game in the snow. It was only one of my few times meeting Barry but it's now been 20 years and I still remember him playing with us the whole night. Just a great guy. I'm happy my uncle was blessed to be his friend. Rest easy Barry. Go pats.

    My condolences to Barry's Mother and family. I did not know Barry that well but I do remember his Mother Shirley who is a great lady. We became acquainted when our sons were in the same graduation class and I worked at the bank across the street. My heart goes out to her 🙏

    Great man Barry! My condolences to his family. RIP my friend! A Randolph classic.

    Barry, the best of friends, the "mayor" of San Francisco, known and loved by everyone who met him. One of my favorite memories was getting tickets from Shirley to the Super Bowl in San Diego and Barry insisting we drive instead of fly with the promise to share the driving with me. Needless to say, I drove the whole way while Barry was sound asleep next to me.
