Mrs. Jones was born Feb. 5, 1924 in Conway, the daughter of the late Alvie and Eliza Rabon. She enjoyed good gospel singing, preaching, fellowship and good food. Her favorite scripture was the 91st chapter of the Book of Psalms.

She has served faithfully as Childrens Sunday School Teacher, Ladies Willing Worker Band President and adult choir member.
Mrs. Jones worked ten years as dry cleaners and laundry manager for the Myrtle Beach A.F.B. and three years as drapery maker for Herbert Jolly.
