QUINCY JONES TO BE BURIED AT ICONIC HOLLYWOOD CEMETERY

LOS ANGELES. – The world is preparing to say goodbye to one of music’s most iconic figures, Quincy Jones, whose profound influence on the industry spanned decades.

Jones, who passed away on Sunday at the age of 91, had experienced health issues in recent years.

The legendary producer, composer, and philanthropist will be honoured at a memorial service on November 14, held at Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Los Angeles, where family, friends, and fans are expected to gather in his memory.

Quincy Jones’ career was marked by ground-breaking achievements and collaborations with iconic artists, including Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra, and Ray Charles.

His production work on albums like “Off the Wall,” “Thriller,” and “Bad” redefined pop music, while his 28 Grammy Awards cemented his reputation as a trailblazer in the music industry.

Hollywood Forever Cemetery, a historic Los Angeles landmark, will host Jones’ funeral.

Known as the resting place of numerous entertainment legends, it is a meaningful venue for honouring Jones’ contributions to music and culture.

The service is expected to feature notable speakers and live performances celebrating his life and legacy. Rashida Jones, his daughter, reflected on her father’s legacy:

“My father’s legacy is in every note of music, every beat, and every harmony he inspired. He taught me that music isn’t just sound; it’s a way of speaking to the soul.”

Renowned producer Lionel Richie stated, “Quincy was a teacher and a friend, someone who made music a language that we all could understand. His influence isn’t just in what we hear but in how we feel.”

Global Farewell Through Live Streaming

To ensure Jones’ global fan base can take part in the tribute, the Quincy Jones Foundation has arranged a live stream of the service, accessible to fans worldwide. Further details on accessing the live stream are available on the foundation’s official website and social media. – funeralhomesnearby.com
