Quincy Jones Laid to Rest in Private Funeral Attended by His 7 Children, Including Rashida Jones



Quincy Jones was laid to rest during a private funeral ceremony a week after his death at 91.
The legendary music producer’s family told the Associated Press Monday, November 11, that the “intimate ceremony included Mr. Jones’ seven children, his brother, two sisters, and immediate family members.”
The family did not disclose where the intimate ceremony in Los Angeles took place, per the AP, but said they are “enormously grateful for the outpouring of condolences and tributes from his friends and fans from around the world.”
“Details for a memorial celebration of Mr. Jones’ life will be announced at a later date,” the family added.
Jones died Sunday, November 3, at his home in the Bel Air area of Los Angeles, his publicist Arnold Robinson said, per multiple outlets including The Hollywood Reporter and the Associated Press.

Jones is survived by his children Jolie, 71, whom he shared with his first wife, Jeri Caldwell, Martina, 58, and Quincy III, whom he shared with his second wife, actress Ulla Andersson, Rachel, 61, whom he shared with ex-girlfriend Carol Reynolds, Kidada, 50, and actress Rashida, 48, whom he shared with third wife Peggy Lipton, and daughter Kenya, 31, whom he shared with ex-girlfriend Nastassja Kinski.
Parks and Recreation star Rashida paid tribute to her late father in an emotional Instagram post on Thursday, November 7.
“My dad was nocturnal his whole adult life. He kept ‘jazz hours’ starting in high school and never looked back. When I was little, I would wake up in the middle of the night to search for him,” Rashida, 48, wrote alongside a photo of her father holding her as a baby. “Undoubtedly, he would be somewhere in the house, composing (old school, with a pen and sheet music). He would never send me back to bed. He would smile and bring me into his arms while he continued to work…there was no safer place in the world for me.”
