    My heartfelt condolences to all of the family and friends of Mrs. Nellie Jones. Nellie Jones could write a book on hospitality. When my late Mother-In-Love, Jessie Ellen Enloe married her late husband Wiiliam Leonard Justice, Nellie was Maid of Honor and provided me, years later with a picture of her in her wedding dress. I will miss seeing Nellie at the Enloe reunion. It was an honor and privilege to know you, Ms. Nellie. May you rest in peace. Debbie Justice
