The family released a statement highlighting the profound loss they felt, celebrating his remarkable life and acknowledging that there would never be another like him.
Quincy's daughter, actress Rashida Jones from "Parks and Recreation," paid tribute to her father on Instagram, honoring him as an "icon," "culture shifter," and a "genius." The private ceremony for Jones took place in Los Angeles, attended by his seven children, his brother, two sisters, and other family members.
