Mahala Heather "Molly" Jones

Mahala "Molly" Heather Jones passed away unexpectedly on November 5, 2024, at her residence. She was 44 years old. The family is deeply saddened and shocked by her sudden death.
Mahala is survived and cherished by her loving children, Creed Krosnoff and Bentley Redwine; stepdaughters, Harmonie and Paris Redwine; mother and stepfather, Melinda and Kevin Potter; father, Michael Barnes; sisters, Leia Barnes and Lacey McInnis; brothers, Gavin Greenough and Jake Norman; grandson, Dakota Robb; and grandfather, Robert Jones.
She was born at Elmendorf Air Force Hospital on October 3, 1980 and grew up in Soldotna, Alaska. Later, she moved back to Anchorage, Alaska, where she eventually settled down to call home. Some of her greatest joy came from her children. They created many memories while enjoying camping trips as a family all over Alaska.
She was a grandmother, mother, daughter, sister, aunt, and friend. Mahala had an unquenchable thirst for helping people. She often spent her spare time helping anyone in need who asked for it, even if it meant giving the last little bit she had. She enjoyed watching her children, nieces, nephews, and grandchildren grow up. She loved hosting family and friends, cooking, dancing, karaoke, having game nights, and laughing whenever surrounded by good company. Mahala loved spending time with family and never turned down a chance to host a gathering.
Mahala will be cremated and the family is currently planning a celebration of life, details to follow.
