Helen Jones Webb Jordan Watts
Obituary Date: Sunday, February 26, 2012
Helen Jones Webb Jordan Watts passed away on Sunday, February 26th, the day before her 94th birthday.
Mrs. Watts was born on February 27, 1918 to the late Fred & Alvie Jones of LaGrange, Georgia, where she lived most of her life. She was preceded in death by her husbands Joe M. Webb, Herb Jordan and Henry Watts, her son Gary M. Webb, her sister Hazel Wilson and brothers Fred B. Jones and Grady Jones.
Mrs. Watts was the agent for delivery of the Atlanta Constitution in LaGrange in the 50's and 60's. She also was the catalog manger for J. C. Penny in LaGrange for twenty years, until her retirement. She moved to Gainesville to live with her daughter and son-in-law in 1990.
Mrs. Watts was a loving and caring mother, grandmother and great-grandmother who spent countless hours entertaining her grandchildren and great-grandson with walks in the woods, spring vacation trips every year, cooking their favorite meals and pound cakes.
