Sarah Jones Obituary

Sarah Elizabeth Jones ATLANTA, GA - Sarah Elizabeth Jones, 27, was a native of West Columbia, South Carolina. She was born on September 22, 1986. She lived in Atlanta, GA where she worked as a Camera Assistant on many projects. Sarah lost her earthly life on February 20, 2014 in Savannah, GA, doing the job she loved. A graduate of Brookland-Cayce High School and the College of Charleston, Sarah finished her formal education with a major in Media Communications and a minor in Film Studies. Sarah began her film career while interning on the set of Army Wives, a popular television show. With her spunk and determination, Sarah continued to climb the ranks of the film industry, quickly finding a passion in the art of Cinematography. She was a loyal and respected member of the International Cinematographers Guild (IATSE Local 600). From the heights of the mountains she hiked, to the depths of the oceans she dove (and never without a camera to record her experiences), the gift of her presence was felt far and wide. To have HEARD of Sarah was a privilege, to have KNOWN Sarah was a blessing. It was to feel an energy that was infectious and kind. Although her physical being is no longer beside us, her smile and her love of life will forever transcend in all the lives of those she touched. Her friends are too many to count. Sarah is survived by her parents, Richard and Elizabeth Jones, of West Columbia; her grandfather Andrew Jones, of West Columbia; her brother, Eric Jones, of Atlanta, GA; her sister, Rebecca Jones, of Boone, NC; and a devoted extended family of cousins, aunts and uncles. In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that donations be made to: BC Education Foundation Sarah Jones Scholarship Fund c/o Brookland-Cayce High School 1300 State Street, Cayce, SC 29033 A memorial will be held at 4 p.m. on Wednesday at Ashland United Methodist Church (2600 Ashland Road, Columbia, SC 29210), followed by a Celebration of Sarah at 5 p.m. at Saluda River Club. (Main Entrance at 644 Corley Mill Road, Lexington, SC 29072; Clubhouse located on Chickawa Drive) www.barr-price.com 803 356-4411 Visit our guestbook at www.legacy.com/obituaries/ charleston

Dear Sarah...I still miss you. Things have changed for the better on sets and in the industry but there is still a long way to go. You are talked about a lot. Your old friends talk about you to the newbies in the industry...we try our best to make you a living, breathing person for them. The others who where on that bridge still have a hard time with it...they always will. Thank you for the gift you have given us.

I hadn't heard about this until today, when I saw it on facebook. Watching the Oscars, my husband and I wondered about the many ribbons people were wearing, showing black train tracks. Now I understand the reason. It was a tribute and memorial to your daughter. Since then I have looked up more information on the internet. What a remarkable young woman she was.
I am a United Methodist minister in Orangeburg District, and I thank God that you have a church to support you through this tragedy, and all the grief and sorrow that is to come. I pray God's loving grace will be lavished upon you, enfolding you in His warm and compassionate embrace.

What a terrible loss for the cinematography community and the family, friends and colleagues Sarah's life touched. I hope your death, Sarah, inspires safety changes in the industry, but perhaps more than that, I hope the way you lived your life and the quality of person you were inspires many to be their best selves. You will be terribly missed.

Sarah,
You did not know me and I had never the privilege to know you... I've been reading the so many amazing things that others whom had the privlidge in knowing you had to say and though I can't share anything about you yourself I can say that you helped brightened the lives of more than just the ones whom you shook their hands with every episode you helped to complete...
"The Vampire Diaries"
(thank you!)
and "The Originals" are my two favorite hours during my week!!
As amazing as the actors and actresses are they would still just be on a stage in a play without the behind the camara men and women like you!!!

I did not know Sarah Jones personally, but she was still my sister. Even though I took an honorary withdrawal from IATSE nearly 20 years ago because of a change in career, I remain loyal and mourn her loss... I want her family to know how much she was loved and respected, and what a tragedy her loss represents to all of us...

I didn't know Sarah,but I did watch the shows she helped create. It's sad the good die young,those with passion often burn out faster because they don't realize the speed they're going at,because they love what they do. Passion,she brought passion into everything she did and you could see it on screen. If everyone loved life with as much passion and commitment she had,life would be a little grander. She won't ever be forgotten,my thoughts and prayers go out to the family.

The film community is such a small community, and when we lose a member we all grieve. I didn't get the pleasure of meeting Sarah, however, I have looked at every picture of her while I was adding them to a slide show for tonight, and her beautiful eyes, and her sweet smile have had me smile and cry all day. Our radio show is going to honor Sarah tonight with a" Moment of Silence", and the reading of her obituary. After that we will discuss the importance of safety on set.
To Sarah's family, you should never have to bury a child, and with everything I have read Sarah has brought so much joy, and love to every one she worked with , or met. She will never be forgotten in the film world as I agree she has left her mark I wish I had the right words to comfort you but, I don't. All I can say is that if you need anything please contact me, and let me know. I will do anything I can to help your family.. You are in my thoughts, and I am
