January 3, 1929 — January 18, 2010
Mrs. Jewell Aline McCook Trey , 81, of Kingsland was called home to her eternal Father early Monday morning January 18th, 2010.
Mrs. Trey is a Mitchell County native, born in Sale City, Georgia on January 3rd, 1929 and is the daughter of the late Hillary and Mae Doris Moulder McCook. A lifelong resident of Southeast Georgia, Mrs. Trey was married to her beloved husband, the late Joseph Samuel Trey, Sr., until his passing on October 20th, 2007. They shared 47 years together.
