Obituary for Jimmie Jones Parton
Jimmie Jones Parton, 83, of Spindale, entered into his Heavenly home on July 9, 2016 at Hospice House. He was born in Gilkey to the late Carvos Edgar and Margaret Jones Parton. Jim was retired from Duke Power and was a US Army Veteran. He was a graduate of R-S Central High School, attended NC State University where he played baseball and also attended Appalachian State University.
Jim was an avid fisherman, farmer and loved gardening and logging. He enjoyed attending the Senior Center and especially loved spending time with his beloved wife and grandchildren. He was a father figure to many.
As a member of Spencer Baptist Church, he could not wait to attend Sunday school, worship and fellowship on Wednesday with those he loved dearly. Jim loved his Lord and felt blessed to be a part of Spencer Church.
Jim is survived by his beloved wife of 55 years, Kathryn Melton Parton; daughters, Anna Parton and Marsha Lane; grandchildren, Eric (Kathy) Cole, Sarah and Laura Robbins, and Calton Thompson IV; great granddaughter, Ashley Cole; sister, Rachel Jo Burnette and brother, Bill Parton, and many nieces and nephews. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his daughter, Melissa Parton Robbins Thompson; sisters, Barbara P. Evans, Louise P. Walsh and Sara P. Dale.
Funeral services will be held 3PM Saturday, July 16, 2016 at Spencer Baptist Church with Rev. Bruce Caldwell officiating. The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service in the Family Life Center of the church.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Spencer Baptist Church, 187 N. Oak Street, Spindale, NC 28160 or Hospice of Rutherford County, PO Box 336, Forest City, NC 28043.
The family extends gratitude to the Hospice staff for the wonderful care given to Jim.
