Obituary of Sandra Baker Jones

Sandra Baker Jones was born November 5, 1961, the daugh­ ter of Arnetta Henry and the late Theodore Baker Sr. She is the product of Baltimore City Public Schools. She graduated from Mergenthaler Vocational-Technical High School in 1979. She attended Morgan State University and was in the Army Reserve. She was a working mother and wife, with three decades of experience in the banking industry. Sandra was raised in the Catholic faith. She held strong Christian values and devoted her life to Jesus Christ. God put her on this Earth to do for others. She committed her life to -taking care of others before taking care of herself. Sandra should be remembered for her infectious smile, her strive for excellence, her long stride while walking and her keen attention to detail. She would also surprise you with her mischievous actions. Her mother often shares the story of baby Sandra streaking around the house. Most of all, she most enjoyed spending time with friends and family, cleaning, shopping, and watching old movies. The "Coach" brand was her preference. She was queen of the latest Coach purses; all colors, shapes and sizes. One of her favorite things to do was visit a good shopping mall. Her fa­ vorite place was the beautiful home she created for the loves of her life, Quintin Sr. and Quintin Jr. Quintin and Sandra met in 1980 at the Federal Reserve Bank. She caught his attention by continually kicking his leg during a job-training class. He thought she was interested in him because of the constant kicking, only to find out later she did that kick all the time. They got married in 1991. Together they share one loving son, Quintin Jones Jr. Sandra is survived by her devoted and loving husband, Quintin Jones Sr., their only son Quintin Jones Jr and their fun and cuddly Scottish Terrier, Riley. Her adoring mother, Arnetta Baker, her sisters, Leslie Womack (Anton), Sharon Smith of Atlanta and her brother, Teddy Baker loved her dearly. Sandra gained a loving sister-in-law, Wanda Jones Brown (William) and brother-in-law, Ronald Jones. She was very close to her aunts, Michelle Harris and namesake, San­ dra Potts and uncle, Bobby Potts. She leaves a host of several other aunts, uncles, cousins nieces, nephews and her inner circle of sisters from another mother, Lizabeth (Yaba-Daba) Potts, Susan Banks (Susie Q), Renee (Sunshine) Vincent, Nancy (Mother) Smith, and Doris Turpin.
