What a sweet lady. B.E. Was always good for a joke! Good people!
So very sorry to hear. I worked with Mary when she was the Student Services secretary at CCC&TI. We all loved her and considered her a good friend. May the family feel God’s love and comfort during this time of loss.
Mary(mom) as I would call her 😊 she was a unique , wonderful and beautiful lady! She had a great daughter that helped her through the last couple years of her life. Dee , you are awesome. She will be loved and missed dearly.
Worked with Mary and her husband B.E. at the college for many years – two wonderful people! Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family!

What a wonderful lady Mrs. Haynes was!
She was the definition of “lady”.
(I grew up a few houses down from her.)
She was always so pleasant to be around.
She will surely be missed, but her children will carry on her legacy. Pray your many beautiful memories will give you comfort.
“Peace be with you…”

So very sorry for your loss. Hugs and prayers for all your family.

Love to the whole family! Aunt Mary will be greatly missed. Mary was the last of Flora’s legacy and she lived the virtuous and industrious life that Flora taught them all. Heaven has gained another worker angel. The reunion has got to be epic!
I know we are all going to miss Mary, but we can be comforted that we know she is now with her heavenly family.
God Bless you all.
Love,
Cliff and Roxanne Jackson
