Our beloved Ma, Mary York (Mary Lee Rogers), passed away on December 14th, 2025. Mary was born on October 30, 1943, in Clarksville, Arkansas, to John and Frances Rogers.

She married the love of her life, Thomas York, and together they shared 63 beautiful years of marriage. Their life together was centered on faith, family, and unconditional love. She was a devoted wife, a loving mother to three sons, and a proud grandmother and great-grandmother. She found great joy in watching her boys grow, marry, and bless her with seven grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.

Mary loved cooking for her family, tending to her garden, and caring for her flowers. Being around Mary made people feel welcome and loved, and her presence will be deeply missed.

A woman of strong Christian faith, Mary cherished her church family and especially loved listening to her family and friends sing and play music in church. She loved her family very much but most importantly she loved Jesus. She wanted everyone that she met and knew to know and love Him. She lived a life full of faith, generosity and love. Dedicated to following God’s plan for her, she was an example of how to be like Christ. While heaven has gained an angel, those she leaves behind must now carry on without her gentle guidance and loving heart. She is, and will forever remain, in our hearts.

Cremation arrangements are under the direction of Roberts Funeral Home.

Mary is survived by her devoted husband, Thomas York; her sons, John (Gayle), Mike (Joann), and Steve (Angie); her grandchildren, Thomas, Ryan, Daniel, Matthew, Jesse, Jacob, and Abby; and five great-grandchildren, all of whom she loved dearly.

Our beloved wife, mother, and Nona, Jewell Mae Godfrey, 71, of Booneville, Arkansas passed peacefully into the arms of Jesus on Wednesday, December 3, 2025, after a long and courageous battle with COPD. She was born February 11, 1954, in Booneville, Arkansas, to Olean and Quinda Roberson.

She was a member of the Southside Baptist Church and earlier in her life, she was employed as a bank teller at both Citizens Bank and Regions Bank where she made many lifelong friends. In addition, she worked at the Gretsch Guitar Plant, Pizza Barn, and KFC. Jewell loved trout fishing and camping with family and friends. Her favorite spot to reel in the biggest trout was the White River at Bull Shoals. Many wonderful memories were made here.

Jewell loved her family and friends more than anything and would often show her love by cooking or baking up their favorite dish. Baking was her passion and she was the best at it. Whether it was one of her famous wedding or birthday cakes, banana pudding, coconut pie, pan of homemade rolls, or Thanksgiving dressing – no matter what it was, it was delicious. Because she was such an amazing cook, she sometimes liked to playfully critique everyone else’s culinary skills.

Jewell found the most joy in spending time with her grandchildren, they were the light of her life. She told them the best bedtime stories, gave them the best hugs, and very rarely ever told them “No”. She was loved by all who knew her and will be missed every day for the rest of our lives.

Jewell is survived by the love of her life, her husband of 53 years, Gary Godfrey of the home; son, Bruce Godfrey of Booneville, Arkansas; daughter, Cara Lensing (Mike) of Greenwood, Arkansas; grandchildren, Laryn and Declan Godfrey and Olivia and Brooks Lensing; brother, Joe Bill Roberson (Karen); sister, Sue Sims (Larry); and many other relatives and friends.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Olean and Quinda Roberson; her infant son, Brian “Spook” Godfrey; and brothers, Bobby and Lester Roberson.

A visitation with the family will be held at the First Baptist Church of Booneville at 1:00 pm on Thursday, December 11, 2025.

A Celebration of Life will immediately follow at 2:00 pm, under the direction of Roberts Funeral Home. Jewell’s favorite color was light pink. Please feel free to wear something pink or any color to help celebrate the life of our precious wife, mom, and Nona.
