Sally Rosenbaum Jones, age 87, of Roanoke, Virginia, went to her Heavenly home on Friday, February 14, 2020, after an extended illness at Lewis-Gale Hospital. Sally was born September 17, 1932, in Marion, Virginia to the late Roy and Zelphie Barlow Rosenbaum. She spent most of her adult life working in the Hospitality field in housekeeping and laundry. She enjoyed square dancing in her earlier adult years and spent many weekend nights dancing away with beloved family and friends. Sally loved camping and the outdoors and had a niche for crochet and needlework. She created many beautiful gifts over the years. She also had a fondness for teddy bears and cows, but she will be remembered most for the love she had for her family and many friends. Sally was preceded in death by her husband of 54 years, Charles Buck Clifton Jones, son Kelly Jones, and daughter Darlene Cunningham. Family remaining to cherish her memory includes her daughter, Vickie Barber (Anthony); son, Michael Jones (Michele); and daughter Martha Chambers (Roy); grandchildren, Leslie Urbani Duty, Rusty Barber, Andrea Barber, Jason Barber, Gina Waller, Daisy Jones, Makayla Jones, Kelsey Lenois, Timothy T.J. Greenway, and Angela Jordan; step-grandchildren, Karac Johnson, Scarllette Gombash, Charles Tony Chambers, William Wesley Chambers, and Rhianna Chambers.
