Versie Jones

Versie Gay Jones, 86, of Baker, LA, went home to be with the Lord on May 28, 2025, surrounded by loved ones.

Born on April 20, 1939, in Franklin County, MS, Versie was a beloved wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend. She lived a life of faith, marked by service, and filled with love. Always quick to lend a helping hand, she never hesitated to show up when someone was in need. Her unwavering support for her family was a constant blessing, and her joyful, contagious laugh could light up any room.

She is also survived by many nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends all of whom she cherished deeply.

She was preceded in death by her dad, W.H. "Jack" Gay; her mother, Gladys Gay; and her brother, Windsor Gay.
