VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
TO EXPRESS THE PROFOUND SORROW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES UPON THE PASSING OF ROSA MAE ANDERSON JONES OF ROCK HILL AND TO EXTEND THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HER FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives were deeply saddened to learn of the death of Rosa Mae Anderson Jones of Rock Hill on January 18, 2015, at the venerable age of nearly ninety-two; and
Whereas, born in York County on February 14, 1923, Rosa Mae Anderson Jones was the eldest child of Louie and Maggie H. Anderson. The young "Roe," as she was affectionately known by family and friends, was educated in the schools of her home county; and
Whereas, Roe married the love of her life, Lester Jones, and together the couple parented eleven children. Lester passed away in 1965; and
Whereas, until her retirement, Roe Jones was employed for many years at J.C. Penney in Rock Hill. At home, she enjoyed cooking and tending to her flower and vegetable gardens. She was particularly known for the Thursday and Sunday dinners she prepared for her family. One of her cousins said something to her about cooking so much for her family, and she responded, "I don't know what I would do without them." This woman of faith loved her family, and the love was mutual; and
Whereas, her family had fun with the fact that her birthday was on Valentine's Day because of the many boxes of candy she received. But she would open only one box, and family members were allowed only one piece. In addition, Roe was a collector of bells, and whenever her children went out of town, they would bring back to her a bell. Many others learned of her collection and started bringing them to her, too; and
Whereas, having been preceded in death by her parents; her youngest sister, Allene "Mutt" Barber; her youngest brother, Louie "Bubba" Anderson; and daughters Willie "Ann" Jones Brown and Rosa Patricia Jones, she leaves to cherish her memory three daughters, Frances L. (Faye) Glenn, Janice M. Jones, and Lisa J. Barnette (Dennis); six sons, Lester Odell Jones, Horace A. Jones, John C. "Jake" Jones (Joyce), Doug Jones, Thomas L. Jones, and Louie Clayton Jones (Jo); twenty-four grandchildren; twenty-two great-grandchildren; four great-great-grandchildren; one sister, Louise A. Pittman; and a host of other relatives and friends. She will be greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, express their profound sorrow upon the passing of Rosa Mae Anderson Jones of Rock Hill and extend the deepest sympathy to her family and many friends.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Lester Odell Jones for the family.
