Anita was a connector. She was gifted and kind. Anita cared for her friends in words and deeds. We had just talked the week prior. She was the glue that kept people together.

She is already missed

Rest in Heaven

Anita Jones! My childhood friend, violin playing, sassy, funny, much loved friend. When Judy Lewis called me to tell me of your passing, I couldn't understand ehat she was saying. My ears went deaf to her words. Anita Jones and I met in the 3rd or 4th grade. Between her sweet mother and my grandfather taking us to violin practice we were on our way to learning our instrument.. one bad note at a time. Being a friend of Anita Jones, we wouldn't see each other for years, but one day I found out her mom had passed snd I remembered where they lived I had to go and show my support. I had fond memories of her mom and her family from years gone. I had to show up. Pam was so surprised to see me when I stopped by.. it was as if the years apart never happened. I still felt the love for this family and it was mutual. Because of the violin Anita Jones and I became friends. I was blessed to have met you and your family. My continued prayers are for your family and those who love you, keep praying! Let those tears fall! In time the tears of sorrow will turn to tears of joy to sounds of laughter as you think about Anita Jones and the memories shared. I have my memories of Anita Jones... and just like the violin, my memories of her will continue to play on. Rest Easy my friend, until we meet again.🎻

Anita was indeed truly special and I feel blessed to have known her. I don't have one single memory in all of our encounters, over almost 20 years, that we didn't share a laugh or she didn't make me feel understood and seen. She was beautiful both on the inside and out. It was a joy to know Anita and to have shared a friendship-- so much warmth. I'll never forget her smile and her supportive spirit throughout my life's milestone events. I will miss you, Anita, and I love you.

I'm so lucky to have you as a sister, and it's something I wouldn't change for the world. Your empathy, patience, and loving acceptance made you the perfect sister. You saw me with all my flaws but abstained from judgement despite them. You always lent your shoulder and your ear to understanding, listening deeply to both family and friends. You brightened the room whenever you went and of course, your smile infected others. I look back on some of the crazy things we did as kids and, you know, I couldn't have asked for a better "partner in crime" back then. We were really lock-stepped with each other then, building a world that only the 2 of us held the key!! Wow, the good ole days. .. . 😍

But then you become this REMARKABLE woman that everyone loved and appreciated. You are my sister, and my gratitude overflows for your presence in the earth. Your departure was shocking, but with Godly understanding, I am quite aware that celebration simply came earlier for you than for your "sibs" as you affectionately called us. But one thing's for sure, I will see you again!! "Side by side or torn apart, sisters will always be connected in heart." You are loved and missed!!!💕

AnitaJones, my lifelong friend, you will be missed more than you will ever know. Life has not been the same since hearing of your passing on Sunday, February 9th, because my heart is screaming "My friend if gone and I do not know how to react because, I honestly cannot process or bear the thought of you not being here on earth!" I have known of AnitaJones 50+ years! It is difficult to put into words what you meant to me and others, but AnitaJones, you are and will always be a phenomenal woman that was filled with love, but also mean-spirited and bossy; I can hear her saying, "now JudyLewis, don't start no mess-LOL!" AnitaJones was also kind, generous, creative, thoughtful, funny and someone for whom I could vent to about life in general. Your death has marked a pivotal moment in my life and one that I will never forget. I love you dearly and your presence will be missed by me, your classmates, friends, and family. Until we meet again, my friend "MUCH LOVE!"

My friend, my sister, a one time coworker (that's how we met in 2000), my sometimes wanna be mother, and sometime wife (she always used my last name when making reservations). You will truly be missed. I'll miss the Saturday morning 2 hour conversation, scrolling through restaurants on line just to determine where we will be going for dinner. I remember the funny times with Gabrielle. The Miami trip where you refused to drive down with me but played football with strangers on the beach. We were planning on going on a "25 years of friendship" trip this year so I'll take that trip to Martha's Vineyard in your honor. My heart is broken but I rest in the assurance that you are in the Masters' care. Take your rest my sister; we will see you in the morning.
