Ethel was affectionately known as "Mom" to many. Her past hobbies were bowling, gardening and she loved to cook. Ethel loved her family and looked forward to family reunions. Every year her home lit up the neighborhood with Christmas lights. That was her favorite time of year.

Jaynes; five children, Edward Earl Jaynes, Evonne (Leslie) Linear, Dorothea Jaynes, Rosemary Richardson, Jeffery Allen Jaynes; 18 wonderful grandchildren, a host of great and great great grandchildren; sisters, Irene Boykin and Joyce Moore; brother, Amos Gregory Sr.; sister-in-law, Mary Lois Jaynes; and a host of nieces, nephews and friends.
