Mary Helen Jones

Mary Helen Pruden Jones, 87, passed away on July 27, 2019, at Brooklyn Hall Personal Care Home in Mathiston, MS. Helen was born on May 4, 1932, in Choctaw County, MS.

Her family was well loved and cherished as evidenced by the true homemaker that she was, as well as the various jobs over the years that helped support her family that she lovingly took care of. In later years her joy was in the art of quilting as she gifted family, friends, and acquaintances with her handiwork.
