Sarah M. Jones was born on June 18, 1932 to the union of Jimmie L. and Arlevia (Nelson) Reynolds. Sarah told her family she was tired of being sick and in pain. On Tuesday morning November 26, 2019, the Lord answered Sarah’s prayers and took her home to be with him. For this we are ever so thankful and grateful, for she is resting in the arms of our Heavenly Father, rejoicing.
Sarah was born and raised in Fitzpatrick, Bullock County, Alabama. Sarah was united in holy matrimony to Willie James Jones, Sr. She and her family later moved from Fitzpatrick, AL to Hamilton, OH.
In her pastime, she enjoyed cooking, fishing, her flower garden, going shopping and loved going out to dinner with family and friends. She also, enjoyed her grandchildren and family visiting her.
