Mr Earnest Jones and Mrs. Francis Jones, I work here on Ft. Lewis with your son Jerome. I cannot even begin to understand the deep loss your whole family is experiencing. I hope and pray that everything will be okay and the children, Kamau and Anaiah can someday come to grips with the emptiness they must feel.

I am praying and will continue to pray for your family.

There is some comfort in knowing that Sandra is with God and your family will someday be reunited and rejoice in the Kingdom of Heaven.

God Bless,

SSG Christopher J. Bayron

To my Dear Friend and Sister in Christ, Francis and Family!

I wish to express my deepest condolences to you and your family in the loss of your beautiful daughter Sandra. She was beautiful on the inside as well as the outside. Continue to hold to God's unchanging Hand, the Rock of our Salvation. Weeping may endure for the night, but Joy, Unspeakable Joy, Joy, Joy, Joy comes in the morning.

You and your Family will continue to be in my thoughts and Prayers. God's strength will see you through. If me or any member of my family can do anything for you,

please don't hesitate to give us a call (I really mean this Francis).

Love,

Sis. Carolyn Davis

My Dearest Sister Fran Jones:

When i heard the sad news about the passin' of your beautiful daughter Sandra, it seem so surreal.

I was just thinkin' about Sandra a few weeks ago because i was goin' to ask my sista Carolyn for her phone number.

I had wanted to share some of my songs with her. Sandra had a way of pushin' me with my writings. She was like a mentor to me. For years we kept in touch by phone. She was always optimistic about life. Believe me, she was nothin' but the truth. I am so grateful that i had the opportunity to bond with your daughter Sandra.

I have always kept her in prayer because we go a long way back.

It was something about her spirit that drew me to her. When i met her, she was no stranger to me. We hit it off so well because we had a lot in common.



Now that she is on vacation, i will continue to keep you and your family in prayer.

As we all know that GOD makes no mistakes,

He knew just which happy, beautiful and sparklin' Angel to take.

Her heart was my heart. Your heart will always be my heart. When you cry i will cry with you.

You gave Sandra the best. The love you had for her was priceless and Holy.

You are a wonderful and a Holy person to know.

My Mother and my sista Carolyn speak so highly of you. I feel like you are part of my family.

You are loved by so many people because of who you are.

Thank you for sharin' your daughter with me.

May GOD keep HIS lovin' arms around you and your family.

If you need a shoulder to cry on or just need someone to talk to, feel free to call me.

YOU are Special and will always be a major part of my soul.



GOD loves you and so do I.

Mother Hall's Daughter,

EMae Hall

Intelligence and gleam is what shined through, at our first meeting. After conversation, I realized quickly that you were a free spirit, being contained on this earth. So, the tears I shed were not of pain; they were really of joy... Because, I knew instantly, That you were free... It is a great pleasure to know you... I love you, your sister in law and love, Tina

The Lord is my shepherd,I shall not want.



He makes me lie down in green pastures.He leads me beside quiet waters.



He restores my soul;He guides me in the path of righteousness

For his name sake



Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,I fear no evil;for Thou art with me;

thy rod and thy staff,they comfort me.



Thou dost prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;thou has anointed my head with oil;My cup overflows



Surely goodness and loving kindness will follow me all the days of my life,and i will dwell in the house of the lord forever.

I remember Sandra. I remember the laughs in our classes together. Ivy had us all on a tight bugdget. I remember the Mother/Daughter Prayer Breakfast that was held at St. Marks. You and Sandra were our guest of honor. What a blessing it was. I remember Sandra and her big smile, when she blessed you with your first grandchild. What a joy it was for the two of you. My heart feels nothing but love for you Fran Jones. I cry to. God is close by your side. you know that.
