SHELBY- Bonnie Mae Jones, 90, of 206 Beaver Dam Drive, passed away Friday, Nov. 28, 2014, with her only son and family by her side, at Wendover Hospice. A native of Gwinnett County, Ga, she was born Sept. 5, 1924, daughter of the late Jacob Brackney and Mary Jane Brown Ashley.
She was a lifetime member of Beaver Dam Baptist Church. She was a member of the Ruth Sunday School Class and the Joy Group.
