The Helena Daily World – Obituaries

January 3, 2008 by Cotton Rohrscheib 1 Comment

Thanks to everyone that has called, sent emails and text messages with their condolences over the loss of my Aunt recently. She was a special woman and we will miss her.  Here is her obit as published in the Helena – West Helena, Arkansas Daily World.  It took a while to locate it on their site and I had a few folks ask me when it was going to be online so since their website is not easy to get around on I am posting it here…

Maxine Mozell Lumpkin, 83, of West Helena passed away Monday, January 31, 2007 at Helena. Mrs. Lumpkin was born April 9, 1924 at Marianna to the late J.D. Davis and the late Daisy Ruth Barnhardt Davis. Mrs. Lumpkin was a retired chief operator for Southwestern Bell Telephone Company of Helena, and the owner and operator of Maxine’s Dress Shop. She was a member of West Helena Baptist Church. She taught Sunday School at First Baptist Church of Helena. For many years, she was an officer in B&PW Club. She was also a member of the Disabled American Veterans Auxiliary.

Her nephew, Cotton Rohrscheib, called her “Cine”. She was his aunt and grandmother all rolled up in one. Her other love was Mojo, Cotton’s puppy. She could hold him for hours while both of them slept. Mrs. Lumpkin liked to play games with her sisters, Ruby and Frankie. She loved to go to Joy Group at church with her sister, Dorothy. A weekend in Batesville with her sister, Helen and other eight sisters was fun, if she did not have to sleep in the same room with them. She said she slept three to one bed too much growing up with twelve kids.

She is survived by her sisters, Helen Baker of Batesville, Betty Ann Garrison and husband, Ed, of Houston, Texas, Mary Ruth Hollowell and husband, J.V., of West Helena, Linda Maier of Fairfield Bay, and Billie Sue Rohrscheib and husband, Henry, of Lexa; a brother, Joe Davis and his wife, Kathy, of Athens, Georgia and Helena. She was preceded in death by her parents and her husband, Harold Lumpkin; a brother, Gene Davis; sisters, Ruby Nelson, Dorothy McDowell, Frankie Grubbs and Sarah Grady and a nephew, Bill Baker.

Graveside services for Maxine Lumpkin will be held at 2 p.m. today in Sunset Memorial Park at West Helena. Visitation was Wednesday evening from 6-9 p.m. at Roller-Citizens. Reverend Dusty Rhodes will officiate.

Pallbearers are Scott Pace, Jay Hollowell, Tripp Hollowell, Joey Grubbs, Clay Grubbs, Michael Grubbs, Terry Grubbs and Cotton Rohrscheib. Honorary pallbearers are all her nieces and nephews and great-nieces and great-nephews. Memorials may be made in lieu of flowers to the Alice Bass Nursing Scholarship Fund c/o Helena National Bank, PO Box 280, Helena, Arkansas 72342.
