TO EXPRESS THE PROFOUND SORROW OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA GENERAL ASSEMBLY UPON THE PASSING OF DOROTHY JEAN JONES OF LEXINGTON AND TO EXTEND THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HER FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina General Assembly were deeply saddened by the passing of Dorothy Jean Jones of Lexington on August 23, 2022, at the age of seventy-one; and
Whereas, born to Fred and Lizzie Quarles McMichael in Lexington, South Carolina, Dorothy Jean Jones came into this world on July 1, 1951; and
Whereas, prior to her retirement, she was employed by the Town of Springdale, where she loved her job and coworkers; and
Whereas, Jean dedicated her free time to blessing others, including baking delicious cakes and other goodies for them. She spent her life helping people and showing compassion to everyone she met. She will leave behind a legacy that is full of love and prayer; and
Whereas, having been predeceased by a brother, Bobby McMichael, Jean leaves to cherish her memory her loving husband of more than forty-two years, Gene "Bimbo" Jones; her sons, Richard Wright (Tricia) and David Jones (Amanda); her grandchildren, Kimberlee Wright (Zack Reed), Sutton Jones, and Hampton Jones; her sisters, Linda Cerio and Janice Elledge; a brother, Johnny McMichael; and a host of other family members and friends. She will be greatly missed. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, express their profound sorrow upon the passing of Dorothy Jean Jones of Lexington and extend the deepest sympathy to her family and many friends.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Mr. Gene Jones for the family.
