Marie Bertrand Obituary

RUSSELLVILLE - Callie Marie "RieRie" Bertrand, 88, of Russelville, formerly of Jonesboro, passed away Thursday, Sept. 8, 2022, at her daughter's home. Marie was born June 13, 1934, in Hickory Plains to P.V. and Thelma Hamric Gunter.

She was retired from Walmart and was a member of Dover First Baptist Church. She loved playing basketball, riding her bike, playing stickball with the grandkids and watching the Razorbacks. Marie never missed a chance to go shopping or take a trip to Branson.

She was preceded in death by her parents; three brothers, Elton Gunter, Johnny Gunter and Les Paul Gunter, and a son-in-law, Loren Hurst.

Those left to cherish her memory are her devoted daughters, Robbie Hurst, Marcia (Billy) Hunter and Kimberley (Kerry) Mosbey; her grandchildren, Jon-David Hurst, Ashley Cullum, Callie (Brett) Fritts, Britney (Darran) Austin, Micah (Erika) Hunter, Justin (Paige) Mosbey and Janae (Brady) Capshaw; great-grandchildren, Grayson and Hannah Taylor, Amelia Cullum, Kaiden and Kylor Fritts, Rook, Reese, Rylann, Ridge Austin, Khaleesi and Declan Mosbey, and Emerson and Sutton Capshaw; sister, Hazel Gunter Quick of Oklahoma City; and several loving nieces and nephews.

A memorial service will be held at 6 p.m. Friday at Roller-Farmers Union Funeral Home, 1900 W. Washington Ave. in Jonesboro with Brother Tim Montgomery officiating. Visitation will be from 4 to 6 p.m. prior to the service.

The family has asked that in lieu of flowers, memorial contributions be made in Marie's name to Hickory Plains Church of Nazarene, in care of Jim Hamric, 13160 Arkansas 13, Ward 72176.

The family would like to express their deepest thanks to Kindred Hospice and her wonderful nurse, Kelli Brixey. We will always cherish you and love you for the care you gave to our mother.
