Her memory will forever remain etched in our hearts as we come together to celebrate a life well-lived and honor the remarkable woman she was.
Born into the tapestry of time on a date that would eventually be overshadowed by the brilliance of her own life, Mother Othessia Jones graced Carrollton, GA, with her presence. She was not merely a member of the community; she was a cornerstone, an embodiment of grace, compassion, and unwavering faith. Her legacy radiates through the lives she touched, the lessons she imparted, and the love she shared.
In commemoration of her life, a Celebration of Life service has been arranged, an event that will stand as a testament to the indelible mark she left behind. On Saturday, August 19, 2023, at 11:00 AM, friends, family, and community members will gather at the First Baptist Church, located at 563 Old Bremen Rd, Carrollton, GA 30117, to pay their respects and honor the life of a remarkable woman.
