She was a Circle of Excellence recipient for many years of her career as a Realtor. Her extensive knowledge coupled with her authentic kindness and guidance made her a cherished figure in the real estate community.

Mae was the daughter of the late Horance Gibbs and Marjorie Ann Davis. She was predeceased by her loving husband, Lawrence Jones; daughter, Suzy Jones; son, Bruce Jones and daughter-in-law, Rita Jones Mitchell. Survivors include her grandson, Bruce Lawrence Jones (Rachel) of Virginia Beach, VA; granddaughter, Marjorie Ann Jones of Roanoke, VA; two great granddaughters, Eliza Mae Jones and Evangeline Marie Jones and nephews, Steve (Dawn), Greg and Jason Jones.
