She was a really sweet person. I won't ever forget that she was our first interviewee in 2018 for the documentary, The Closing of a School, The History and Heritage of Central High--in Hillsborough, NC. Born in 1920, she was the oldest living graduate --to our knowledge-- of our high school. Her name will appear In Memoriam in the dedication section of the documentary.
My deepest condolences to the Jones family. Keeping you in my prayers.🙏🏾

Ms. Eliza Smith Jones, my Queen! We will always have you in our hearts.
