A SENATE RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE MRS. SARAH ROSS JONES, OF LEXINGTON COUNTY, ON THE OCCASION OF HER NINETIETH BIRTHDAY, AND TO WISH HER A JOYOUS BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION AND CONTINUED HEALTH AND HAPPINESS.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina Senate are delighted to learn that Mrs. Sarah Ross Jones will celebrate her ninetieth birthday on March 12, 2009; and

Whereas, Sarah Ross Jones was born on March 12, 1919, in Columbia, when the twentieth century was still in its youth, and she has been witness to nearly all the incredible changes and developments that have come to this nation from that time into the twenty-first century; and

Whereas, the daughter of John Henry Ross and Maisie Hammond Ross, she was one of seven children; and

Whereas, married to the late Julian W. Jones, Mrs. Jones and her husband lovingly parented three children, Julian W. Jones, Jr., Dan E. Jones, and Rebecca Jones Dodson, who have given their parents the joy of nine grandchildren and three great-grandchildren; and

Whereas, she has lived in the same family home for fifty-five years and has looked to First Baptist Church of West Columbia as her spiritual home for nearly as long, more than sixty years; and

Whereas, the Senate is proud to honor this truly lovely lady at the celebration of her ninetieth birthday and joins with her family and friends in congratulating her on reaching this extraordinary milestone. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate:

That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, congratulate Mrs. Sarah Ross Jones, of Lexington County, on the occasion of her ninetieth birthday, and wish her a joyous birthday celebration and continued health and happiness.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Mrs. Sarah Ross Jones.
