Annie Ruth Harris was the fourth child to Annie B. (White) and John Wesley Jones, Sr.
She joined the Willow Grove Church in Coushatta, LA at a young age. After marrying and moving to Texas, she joined Lake Providence Baptist Church in Gilmer, then became a faithful member of Macedonia Apostolic Church in Diana until her health prevented her from attending in person.
Annie received her education at Springville High School in Coushatta, LA.
Annie worked for Sunbeam in Coushatta, LA, and retired from Longview News Journal in 2002 after 25 years of service as Maintenance Supervisor.
Annie enjoyed traveling, music, church, and had the privilege of helping raise her very special granddaughter, Emma Grace.
