Marilyn Jones Mote

September 19, 1932 — November 4, 2023


Marilyn Jones Mote left her temporary home Saturday November 4, 2023, and is now abiding in her eternal home in heaven.  Originally from Vredenburgh, Alabama, Marilyn moved to Birmingham as a young adult where she was a student at Howard College (Samford) and met her future husband, Joe Mote.  Preceding her in death are her husband Joe, her father and mother Jamie and Minnie Jones, as well as siblings Jamie, John Edge, Burt, Margie, Dorris, and Joline.  She is survived by her twin sister Kitty, her son Doug (Julie) - grandchildren Anna and Emma, her son Patrick (Lori) - grandchildren Joshua, Bekah, Joseph, Johnathan, William, and great grandchildren Isabella and Caleb, and her son Brison (Nikki) - grandchildren Katie, Lizzy, and Abbie.

Marilyn was a faithful wife, mother, and church member.  She loved music and participated in the church choir and led children’s choir for many years.  She also served in prison ministry, and as a counselor at a local crisis pregnancy center.  Marilyn believed in the power of prayer, and was faithful to send cards with notes of encouragement to people she knew needed to be lifted in prayer to the father.  She will be greatly missed, but those who knew her well know that she is in a better place.  We hope you will join us in celebrating the life that she once lived on earth, and the TRUE LIFE she is now living in her eternal home.
