Mrs. Jones passed away on November 26, 2023.
You will be missed. You are embedded in our mind and heart. Psalms 23 "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You aniont my head with oil; My cup runs over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever."

Mother Jones was a Big supporter of the GHS Class of 1980. She allowed us to have meetings at her house and fed us with refreshments. She attended our class functions.
She was a delightful, strong, energetic and graceful lady. She always had a smile on her face. Mother Jones depended on the Lord for her strength.
Even though, she was 103 years old, she had more energy than us. I asked my mother, Marian and Mrs. Jones, “How do you stay so young and energetic?” Both said, “The Lord and be active, because I don’t feel old.” They had a smile on their face.
I loved visiting and speaking with her at the house. She was like a mother to me and many others.
Let the WORKS our Honorary Mother of Goldsboro High School Class of 1980 have done speak for her. Mother Jones will be missed, and will not be forgotten.
As our Class motto says, "We are leaders of tomorrow, prepare ourselves today." Mother Jones prepared herself to be with the Lord."
Our Class song says, "We are moving on to greater Heights we’re going.” Mother Jones has gone to greater Heights and has rested in the arms of the Lord.
My condolences and prayers are with the family and GHS Class of 80.
