Bernetta Jones peacefully slipped away at her home in Hartfield on Saturday, Oct. 17, 2020.
Bernetta was born on July 3, 1947 in Spokane, Wash., to the late Preston Jackson Sr. and Catherine Bernstein. Always full of life and possessing one of the most contagious smiles one could ever encounter, it is no surprise that she was loved and adored by all.
Baptized at an early age at New Mount Zion Baptist Church in Gloucester, she was a committed and faithful member serving in various capacities to include the usher ministry and music ministry where she enjoyed singing in the Gospel choir. She later joined New Hope Fellowship Church in Hartfield, where she continued her spiritual journey and commitment to serving the Lord.
