Haynesworth, Mary Lee

“I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the lord, the righteous judge, shall give to me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them that love his appearing.” 2 Timothy 4:7-8 Mrs. Mary Lee “Jackie” Hines Haynesworth departed this earthly home to enter into eternal rest on Friday, February 18, 2011 at McLeod Regional Medical Center after an extended illness. “Jackie,” as she was affectionately called, was born August 16, 1940 in Florence County, to Ernest Nettles and Mattie Mae Hines Godbolt. She was raised by David Hines Sr. and Mary Gregg Hines. “Jackie” attended the public schools of Florence County. She was employed at Porter’s Gift Shop for 32 years as a Sales Representative. She also worked as a Mary Kay Sales Representative. She worked diligently in the church and served on the music ministry at Maxwell Baptist Church. “Jackie” loved her church and everyone she came in contact with. “Jackie” was a community leader and a dedicated singer.
