James Ensley-Jones "E.J." Spradling passed peacefully from his Mommy's arms into the arms of Jesus Sunday, December 23, 2018, at the Women's Center in Tupelo. He was born December 20, 2018, to Tiffany Jean Spradling.
Born 15 weeks early and weighing only one pound and 14 ounces with beautiful blonde hair, he proved to be a fighter and lived much longer than expected. During that fleeting time, E.J. touched the hearts of many and was loved by all who knew him.
Survivors include Mother, Tiffany "T.J." Spradling of Mantachie; three siblings, Gabe, Madi-Jo and Malaya Wigginton all of the home; grandparents, Joy and Keith Jones of Tupelo and Linda Ensley of Mantachie; and his Godparents; Kayla Bynum and Cass Heatherly both of Nettleton.
He was preceded in death by his grandfather, Jimmy Ensley.
The family will receive visitors from 12 until 2 p.m. Friday, December 28, 2018 at "The Church" in Plantersville, 3451 Hwy 6 S Plantersville, MS 38862.
Rev. Jeff Martin will offer words of comfort to friends and family Friday, December 28, 2018 at 2 p.m.
The family would like to extend a very special thank you to all the NICU staff for their effort, care and dedication not only to E.J., but to the family as well.
