Rudine Noles Sallee, 99, of Price Place, AR passed away at her residence on November 18, 2025, just six days shy of her 100th birthday. She was born November 24, 1925 in Mount Dora, FL.

She grew up in Sparks, GA and went to Brushy Creek, GA schools. She moved to the Ozarks just a couple of years ago to live with her daughter, Barbara and son-in-law, Mark Jones. She gives Christ Jesus all the praise for her long life and good health. She loves going to church at Frontier Baptist in Pontiac, MO and going to thrift stores and yard sales. Her advice for a long life is to "Confess your sins, get saved, and live for Jesus."

She is survived by four children: Joyce Ann Luna of Bluffton, AR, Darrell Arthur Hicks of Phenix City, AL, Barbara Elaine Jones of Price Place, AR, Debra Gail Sobey of Beavercreek, OH; 13 grandchildren; 21 great grandchildren; 9 great-great grandchildren; and one great-great-great grandchild.

She was preceded in death by her parents; and four children: George Robert "Boots" Jewell, Linda Fay Moore, Betty Darlene Hicks, and Kevin Wayne Hicks.

Funeral services will be held at 10:30 a.m. Saturday, November 22, 2025 at the Frontier Baptist Church in Pontiac, MO. Officiating will be Bro. Bruce DeWeese.
