Debbi Jones, age 69, of 1374 Burdette Road, Gray Court SC passed away peacefully on March 1st, 2022, surrounded by friends and family.
Debbi was born in Jackson Mississippi to Virgil and Barbara King. She attended University of Mississippi. She was an IT Security Auditor and held multiple professional certifications. She was a senior member of the RAS Audit group at BDO with clients around the world. She was a former member of First Baptist Church in Lexington MS. Debbi was an avid reader and loved going “Junque-tiquing” with friends and husband Don. She loved British television, Downton Abbey, and the PBS Masterpiece series, good coffee, and giraffes. Nobody ever made a better lemon-buttermilk icebox pie, and no husband ever had a better partner in life.

They have three daughters, Michele Gaines (husband David) of Asheville NC, Chrissy Hope (husband Shane) of Aiken SC, and Kari Estrada of Angleton TX.
