Sara Jones was a friend to everyone she met, an amazing, proud, and fierce mother, and a loving wife. If you knew her, you were blessed.
Sara had a booming and genuine laugh that was contagious. She was generous, warm, and giving. Even though she had her own health issues, she always made time to check in with other people and make sure they were doing well. She put others first before herself.
I was lucky enough to meet Sara back in high school. We clicked right away. I remember many school lunch hours laughing and talking. We used to hang out at her house, lay on our backs on the floor with our feet propped up against the wall, and talk for hours on end about nothing and everything. I have wonderful memories of us taking walks and singing the latest En Vogue song at the top of our lungs - not caring one single bit what the neighbors thought as we strolled past.
As we got to be adults and moved to different parts of the country, we would check in every so often and say hello. It’s a gift to have a friend that you can pick right up wherever you left off as if no time passed.
We finally got to see each other in person again many years later, and at that point we both had kids. How fortunate I felt to be invited to spend time together, introduce the kids, and even enjoy time at Disney together. It’s a wonderful feeling to have your kids instantly click the same way you did all those gazillions of years before, and to be able to meet her husband Melvin that she always glowingly talked about and loved so dearly. I was so impressed with how she was as a mother. I could see that her kids not only loved her but were proud she was their mom - and that is no small feat for a mother of three.
We kept in touch more after that trip, and I always enjoyed our phone calls. It didn’t matter if one of us felt like crap or was having a rough day - by the time we got a minute or two into the call the laughter always started flowing. That was the true beauty of Sara. She could always find something to laugh about and that fantastic laugh was irresistible.
Her life was focused on all the right things - love for her family, love for her friends, love and appreciation for her blessings. I will truly miss Sara. She was the best kind of people.
