Obituary
Inez M. Jefferson purposed in her heart to serve and please God every day of her life. She lived her life with her devoted husband sixty-four years, Thomas Jefferson; and beloved son, Orlando Jefferson, who preceded her in life in 1975. She purposed in her life to walk in the ways of the Lord.
Inez entered this world on August 25, 1926, to Beatrice Scott-Lipscomb and Charlie Lipscomb. After the passing of her parents, her paternal Aunts, Ellen, Ruth and Alice raised Inez; and two of her siblings, Andrew Lipscomb, who preceded in her in life; and Sarah Lipscomb-Wright, who resides in a nursing home in Pittsburgh, PA. Inez also had two half-siblings: Lorenzo Brown, who preceded her in life; and Belle Jackson, who resides in Baltimore, MD.
Inez moved to Brooklyn, NY in 1949 with her husband where they owned and operated Jefferson Funeral Home. Inez and Thomas moved back to Lynchburg, VA in 1999. Inez and Thomas were active members at Brown Memorial Church, in Brooklyn, NY. Inez had been a member of 5th Street Baptist Church as a child and was happy to return and renew her membership when she returned to Lynchburg. She and Thomas were members of the Pastor's Aide Ministry and Zion Travelers Club; she enjoyed opportunities to fellowship with members.
She spent the last two years at Washington Center for the Aging in Washington, DC. Her warm personality and beautiful smile was a source of compliments from all of the staff she encountered there.
