    • Bessie Kathryn Hall

      Bessie Kathryn Hall, 85, of Goldtown passed away Saturday, January 1, 2010 at CAMC General Division following an extended illness.
      She was born March 18, 1925 on a farm in Goldtown, daughter of the late William H. and Anna C. Duff Monday. "My sister liked to work in the house, but I was the one in the fields with Dad," she’d say.
      She worked at Sears & Roebuck; taught upholstery and drapery classes; taught Sunday school; and did upholstery for 45 years. She was also a homemaker who raised a family that she was so proud of. She loved sewing, gardening, canning, shopping and being outdoors. Above everything, she truly loved God and her family. She attended Fisher Chapel United Methodist Church in Romance.
      She lived a very memorable life that touched many people along the way. She always had "too many irons in the fire," she’d say, but she would drop everything to help her children, grandchildren or a friend. She could make something out of nothing, whether it was through cooking, sewing or upholstery. She was truly an amazing lady, mother, grandmother and, now, angel who will be greatly missed.
      In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband of 42 years, Harold L. Hall; brother, Johnny Nile Monday; and sister, Myrtle Casto.
      Surviving are her son, Randall David Hall of Goldtown; daughters, Deborah Mullins (Roger) of Goldtown and Amanda Caroline Whittington (John) of Eleanor; grandchildren, Jennifer Nunley (Luke), Anthony Whittington, Joshua Mullins (Carla), Jacob Mullins (Heather) and Samuel Mullins; and great-grandchildren, Cody, Julia, Ty and Eli Mullins and Bryan Hope Nunley.
      Funeral service is set for noon Tuesday, January 4, at the Fisher Chapel United Methodist Church, Haines Branch with Pastor David Peters officiating. Interment will follow at the Duff Family Cemetery, Goldtown.
      Friends may call from 5 to 8 p.m. Monday and one hour prior to the service Tuesday at the church.
      Waybright Funeral Home, Ripley is serving the Hall family.
