Mildred Mae “Noonie†Horne Jones went home to be with the Lord on Sunday, Sept. 26, 2010.
Mrs. Jones was a lifelong Carrboro, N.C., resident. She was the daughter of the late Clifton Horne and Mary Dorsie Brockwell Horne Neville. She was the first wife of Clyde Ray Jones. She is survived by a son, Sam Jones; grandsons, Joseph and Joshua Jones; brothers, John Robert Horne, Jack Neville and Garland Neville; sister-in-law, Mrs. Reid Neville Jr. (Tazuko); aunt, Pearl Brockwell; nephew, Douglas Horne; Roy Jones, Marie Zedaker, Eddie Jones, Nancy Dodd and other kin.
A strong and independent woman, Mrs. Jones was a loving mother and grandmother. She was a faithful member of Calvary Baptist Church in Carrboro for many years. She was always willing to help those in need. Later years brought physical debilitation, but never was her spirit debilitated nor broken. She testified of the Lord Jesus every opportunity she had. She will be greatly missed.
Interment will be at Westwood Cemetery in Carrboro.
