Ms. Mary Ann Jones
February 14, 1943 - December 27, 2020
Mary Ann Jones - 77, passed away at Flo & Phil Jones Hospice House in Jonesboro, Arkansas. She was number six of twelve children born to Wallace Sr. and Vera Jones. Mary was the first of the Jones 12 to be born in a hospital. She was a God-fearing woman that when able attended Brookland Baptist Church. From the time Mary was a young girl, she found her passion in horses. She began riding at 3 years old without a saddle because her dad was concerned she’d get her foot hung-up in the stirrup. It was then that she would form a lifelong bond and become an avid equestrian. Mary raised horses on the family farm for generations and could tell you the bloodline of every horse. Dixie was her favorite and lived to be 37 years old. Mary’s love of her family and animals will live on in all our hearts. She was preceded in death by her parents Wallace Sr. and Vera (McElyea) Jones; three brothers Larry Jones Sr., Charles “Big Boy” Jones and Jerry Jones; and one sister Dora Lee Jones. Mary is survived by one brother Wallace "Tommy" Jones Jr. of Thousand Oaks, California; six sisters Paula Tyra of California, Vera Remagen of Jonesboro, Arkansas, Doris Jones of Avon Park, Florida, Shirley Sue Thompson of Paragould, Arkansas, Katherine Coots of Jonesboro, Arkansas and Rebecca Hendrix of Hooker, Arkansas; nephew David Jones and a host of other nephews, nieces, and friends. Mary’s final request has been honored. Tri-City LLC Crematory Funeral Home is honored and privileged to serve the family of Mary Jones. Online condolences may be expressed at www.Tri-CityLLC.com.
