Mardana Jones
Obituary
Mardana (Moss) Cerchie Jones was born February 12, 1948 in Tulsa, OK to Dana & Marjorie (Dievendorff) Moss and passed from this life on August 3, 2012 at the age of 64.
Mardana Cerchie Jones was how we knew her light, a name remembered by all who knew her. She was an avid student in the school of life, a loving teacher and healer to many. She was the beloved mother of two very lucky boys who couldn't have dreamed of a better mother. Her light shines on through them and the countless others who knew her joyous life.
February 12th, 1948 was the beginning of a very special journey. She danced beautifully through her years, and with simple words, taught us to dance along as well. The world was blessed to have her, and is a much better place for it. She loved us all, and encouraged us all to love one another each and every single day. August 3rd, 2012 she transitioned from this physical world and into the eternal warmth of our hearts.
She is survived by her two sons, Jason Lane Cerchie, age thirty-eight, born in Tulsa, Oklahoma and Noah Alexander Jones, age twenty-five born near Mulberry, Arkansas; her younger sister, Marilyn Gates; her dear friend and companion, Damon Jones and two very spoiled cats, Toots and Precious.
A celebration of her life will be held Wednesday, August 8, 2012 from 6:009:00 p.m. at the Tulsa Rose Garden South Room.
The family asks that in lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Insight Mediation Society -- http://www.dharma.org/generosity

Tributes & Memories
I had the pleasure of working with Mardana at Hall Estill for several years. She was such a good woman and did everything in her life with the best of intentions. Mardana knew exactly what she wanted in this life, and the next, and I'm confident that she's now at peace and looking upon her wonderful family with joy in her heart.

Mardana was my friend & my guide on my spiritual journey. I will miss her but am comforted by our plans for the future...

Mardana was more than a friend, we were Soul Sisters as we shared the same birthday, even the year, but most of all,she was "my PERSON". She, of course, introduced me to Reiki, taught me how to stay in the present moment, and taught me that we always have options. Her heart was always open and now I'm going to be as positive as she was. What better place to have my person than in the Higher realms?

When my husband and I were the ministers at Unity of Ft. Smith, Arkansas in 1996, Mardana Jones was the first person to take me out to lunch and welcome me to the church. She loved her children, nature, and was health conscious. She loved to meditate and practice "being in the now moment". She was a spiritual light who will be missed.

I will always remember Mardana as a free spirit. She was a very hard worker and always had a smile on her face. She will be missed.
