Jeffrey Jones Obituary

Jones, Jeffrey Ward

"Jeff" Jones 54, of Brewster, NY, died Thursday, June 30, 2016 surrounded by family while a hospice patient at Mt. Sinai Hospital. He succumbed to Multiple Myeloma, a disease he fought for twelve years with the help of strong and innovative support of medical staff from three separate hospitals. Born October 19, 1961, in New London, Connecticut, to Jackie and Ward Jones of Mt. Kisco, NY, he graduated from Fox Lane High School and earned a business degree from Pace University. At the time of his diagnosis, Jeff was employed as an IT Manager at TIAA-CREF in NYC. Jeff is survived by his truly beloved wife Laura Jean Jones who devoted her life to his during the many difficult times, his sister Naomi Jones-Staricka of Minnesota, her husband Robert, their children Eleanor, Anna, and Alec, and his car pal cousin Craig Colligan and his wife Jeanne. Jeff will be remembered by friends for the Street Rods he built, his quirky sense of humor, love of surf music, his strength to fight his disease, and devotion to family. In lieu of flowers memorial donations may be made to IMF, 12650 Riverside Drive, Suite 206 N. Hollywood, CA 91607 or online at www.myeloma.org. The family wishes to extend their deepest gratitude to myeloma pioneer, Dr. Bart Barlogie.

LJ and Family,
Jeff truly became like a brother to me in our shared journeys dealing with multiple myeloma. Of all of the other patients/caregivers we met in Little Rock, you two, probably because of our similar circumstances of age, geography, appearances, interests, and so forth, became among our closest friends, comrades, and confidants. I don't really have the words to express my sadness and I certainly do not have the words to express all I've learned from you both. I can say at least this with all of my heart to you LJ; you and Jeff embody everything and all that love can be between two people and still do. God Bless.
Dave (and Jen) Saj
