Sally Jones
This edition of Sky Studio is dedicated to Sally Jones who joined former colleagues in Sky Studio May 23, 2019.
Fond recollections of a kind and thoughtful person and a great production team member in television come to mind as we remember Sally and add her name to our list of honour.
Sally Jones worked in many aspects of TV production at CJIC (and later CHBX) primarily in telecine, the assembly of slides and films in perfect order at the right time, under tight time constraints working in almost a choreography of movement with others.
She now joins many broadcasting friends who worked with her and what a reunion they must be having when one starts to think of the names of her former colleagues who are now embracing her.
Anyone working with Sally will recall her sense of humour that made a sometimes tough and pressuring job, easier to take. I remember Sally always smiling no matter what difficulty might come her way. In addition to successfully handling those with determination, she also shouldered the worries of many others by offering her time to listen, help, console and advise.
Co-worker and friend Karen MacDougall Johns recalls, “Sally was a wonderful person. When we worked at the TV station we had so many good times together. We were very close and went through a lot together. She was the type of person who you could call day or night and she would be there for you. She was always there with an ear to listen or a shoulder to cry on. I will never forget her. She is gone far too early but she will always be remembered.”
Those who worked with and knew Sally will remember her fondly, will think of her smile and her laugh, and will consider they were fortunate to have known her and are a better person as a result.
While Sally’s production of life fades out here, her glow remains and her new show begins.
