Jessie Mae Tyus

Remembering you.

Grandama Jessie, one year has passed and I know you and Grandaddy are doing just fine together again. On May 10th, My Mother joined the link in the Heavenly Chain, until we all meet again, we love and miss your voice and smiling face.

This was a very special teacher to me. She told me she taught my mom and my dad so she expected great things from me. I always remembered that. She was a wonderful lady.

I am sending thoughts and prayers for her family and friends. Like many, I had Mrs. Tyus as a 5th grade teacher. She was a classy and sassy lady. She was one of my absolutely favorite teachers. She was well known and loved lady.

Mrs. Tyus was my first teacher when I moved to Jemison from Birmingham in the 5th grade. She made the transition and welcome to my first public school a smooth and blessed one. She was so kind, elegant and a wonderful teacher and role model. May she rest in God´s hand as His good faithful servant.

Mrs Tyus was a very sweet and loving teacher. She taught my in 5th grade at Jemison. That was almost 40 years ago. I will always remember her kindness to me and my peers. I loved to smell her perfume too. Prayers for her precious family. She made her mark in this world. I am better for knowing her.

Mrs. Tyus was my fifth grade teacher. She was a very special lady and we all loved her. Yes she was serious about no gum chewing, thus the gum jar

Sweet lady! She taught me 40+ years ago and still remember her as the definition of a lady.

After the Civil Rights era ended, Ms. Tyus contributed to the Chilton County communities of Jemison in a unique way. Teaching generations of students. We love and appreciate her. Ms.Tyus will forever be known for her professional attire, (dresses and high heels) not a hair out of place. This attitude influenced many countless students to pursue an education at various levels. Ms. Tyus was by far, classy, caring, up front, transparent, intelligent, Fair and most of all she demonstrated...
