Our thoughts and prayers are with TeNiya, her family and the students and others impacted. "She is loved. You were easily attracted to her personality", Thomas-Mora told the News-Press.
"There were other students present in Tel Aviv", with Jones, he said, and they are "naturally concerned for the well-being of their friend".
'We will do everything possible to provide whatever support is needed'.
The four students were part of a group of seven United Kingdom students, and two students from West Virginia University, based in Amman, Jordan, for the summer for a program focused on Arabic language.
Jones was part of a group of seven students, including five from the University of Kentucky, studying Arabic in Amman, Jordan, since June.
Thomas-Mora and her father (Jones' grandfather) will meet with officials searching for Jones on Monday, July 30th. A cousin tweeted on Sunday, urging anybody with information on her to get in touch.
