Mrs. Frances Powell Jenrette

With loving arms of compassion, the Majestic Funeral Home family is consoling the heartbroken loved ones of Mrs. Frances Jenrette as they prepare to take a journey that no family wishes to take. Mrs. Jenrette closed the curtains of life Friday morning, November 16, 2018 at Lower Cape Fear Hospice Center in Whiteville, NC. 

On Saturday, November 24, 2018 between the hours of 4pm and 6pm, Mrs. Jenrette will lie in peaceful repose for those who wish to spend moments with her at Majestic Funeral Home in Elizabethtown, NC.  The “Dash” between Mrs. Frances’ year of birth and year of leaving this world will be honored on Sunday, November 25, 2018 at 2pm at Pleasant Hill Baptist Church in Clarkton, NC.  Following the Order of Divine Worship in the sanctuary Mrs. Jenrette’s delicate temple along with her cherished relatives will be escorted to the Welches Creek Cemetery in Whiteville, NC for Interment Rites.  Although it will be a major adjustment for Mrs. Frances’ adored children with her no longer being present to enjoy precious moments, all can find comfort realizing she is sitting at the Welcome Table with all of the saints that have gone on before her beholding the Master’s Glory as she receives her golden keys and her crown of righteousness.
