Janet Marie Jones

Janet Marie Jones was born February 22, 1951 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to the late Edward T. Williams, Sr. and Mildred L. Gunn-Williams. She was the fifth of seven children.

Janet attended Orange County Public School System in Orlando, Florida and continued her education at various educational institutions in Florida.

Janet was known for her contagious smile and kind heart, which caught the attention of her soulmate, Arthur Monroe Jones, Jr. They were happily married for forty-six years. As she loved and honored her husband, she dedicated her life to serving her community.

Janet was a director for the American Red Cross on the Northside and NAS Jax; and also, an HIV-AIDS Instructor. She obtained her medical certification because she loved helping people.

Janet was a member of Mt. Bethel Baptist Church and served on several ministries, including the Usher Ministry and Nursing Ministry until her health failed.
