The Lord is my Shepherd …Psalms 23:1

Funeral services for Annie Jean Jones Cagler, 65, of Picayune, will be held on Saturday, May 23, 2015 at 12:00 noon at Pleasant Valley Baptist Church.  Pastor Donald Parker will officiate at the service.

Sister Annie Jean was born on April 1, 1950 in Picayune, MS.  She was educated at George Washington Carver High School and Picayune Memorial High School.  She later moved to Pensacola Florida where she was employed by civil service for the U. S. Navy.  At the age of 45, Annie retired and relocated back to Picayune, Mississippi. She was previously the business owner of Annie Jean’s Restaurant and Lounge in Picayune.

Annie united in holy matrimony to Ronald (Bonehead) Cagler on May 13, 2005. Annie Jean joined Pleasant Valley Baptist Church under the leadership of Rev. Donald Parker.  Annie was an affectionate, loving person who enjoyed family gatherings, fun, and laughter.  Her character was as strong as a lion (never displaying the agony of her struggle) and yet humble as a lamb.  Her hobbies included fishing and listening to music.

Green; her adoptive parents, Albert and Annie Mae Jones; her daughters, Carolyn Spires and Tammy Spires; and four brothers, J.C., Monroe, Evan, and Andre Green.
