Mamie Nell Batchelor Madison Parish, LA
From
Crothers-Glenwood Funeral Home July 6, 2017
Mamie Nell Batchelor Madison Parish, LA
December 3, 1930 - June 22, 2017
Mamie Nell Batchelor, age 86, passed away on Thursday, June 22, 2017,
at the Madison Parish Hospital after a courageous battle with cancer. Her
parents were Isaac Oswald Boatner and Sarah Irma
Dorsey of Harrisonburg, Louisiana. Mrs. Batchelor was
also born in Harrisonburg, Louisiana, and she moved to Tallulah in the 1950's
with her first husband, Thomas Adrel Brulte. They had three sons, Jeffrey Kevin Brulte, Gregory Boatner Brulte, and Mark Thomas Brulte,
whom all survive Mamie Nell.
Following the death
of Thomas Adrel Brulte, Mamie Nell
married George Madison Batchelor, who had previously
lost his wife Margaret Jean Callahan (Peggy). George and Peggy had four
children, George Madison Batchelor, Junior, Michael
Stuart Batchelor, Helen Marie Batchelor
Grissom, and Mary Kathryn Batchelor Hamilton, all of
whom also survive Mamie Nell.
In 1969, George and
Mamie Nell combined households and their home on Tampa Street became known as
"Grand Central Station". It was a whirlwind of activity, with friends
and relatives participating in many activities, including basketball, ping-pong
and swinging on the backyard rope swing.
Mamie Nell Batchelor has ten grandchildren, Anna Elizabeth Brulte, George William Thomas Brulte,
Katherine Joan Brulte, Saylor Adrel
Brulte, Aralin Amanda Brulte, Hannah Margaret Grissom, Kelly Taylor Grissom, John
Mitchell Hamilton, Leah Batchelor Lane and Matthew
Stuart Batchelor. Also, there are three
great-grandchildren, Jett Lane, Chase Lane and John Jamison Hamilton. In
addition, Mamie Nell is survived by her beloved cat, Rita, who showed up at the
house during Hurricane Rita. The cat will soon reside in Southern California,
where there are rarely hurricanes.
The family is very
appreciative of the excellent medical care provided by Dr. Pop Neumann, his
office staff, the Olive Branch Senior Care Center, and the caring professionals
of Madison Parish Hospital. They all treated Mamie Nell just like a family
member, as did her local friends and neighbors.
Funeral services will
be Sunday, June 25, 2017 at the First United Methodist Church of Tallulah.
Visitation will begin at 2 pm with the service at 3 pm. A graveside service
will follow at Memorial Park.
