Margaret Elizabeth Blasingame Bizzell

Mrs. Bizzell passed from this life of Monday evening, July 12, 2021 at her son's home near Middleton.

A native of Corinth, MS, she lived in the Middleton area most all of her life. She was the daughter of the late David Sylvester and Luetter Pearl Horton Blasingame. In earlier years, Mrs. Bizzell worked for Armira Corporation in Bolivar, but was primarily a homemaker as she reared her eight children. She married Mr. Cloyce Benton Bizzell on Saturday, November 14, 1959 and he died Sunday, April 5, 1992. In addition to her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by a son, Jeffrey Lynn Bizzell; a sister, Etta Faye Corbett; two brothers, James Edgar and David Wayne Blasingame; and a son-in-law, Terry Flake.

Mrs. Bizzell loved to attend church services, along with her children, at Middleton Pentecostal Tabernacle where she was a faithful member for 38 years. In her leisure time, she enjoyed singing and playing her guitar, collecting recipes, cooking, writing, and keeping up with her entire family on Facebook. A woman of few words, she had a love for everyone with whom she came in contact especially her beloved grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

She is survived by three daughters, Margaret Dianne Flake and Joyce Lucille Shields, both of Walnut, MS and Lillie Jane Harris of Toone; four sons, Randall Benton Bizzell (Twanda) of Pocahontas, David Marion Bizzell, Marlon Dwayne Bizzell (Wendy) and Brian Cloyce Bizzell (Lacy), all of Middleton; a sister, Mary Frances Cornelius of Rienzi, MS; a brother, Robert Lee Blasingame of Walnut; 16 grandchildren, Jennifer Perez, Jackie Jones, Brittany Shields, Jason, Michelle and Nathan Harris, Chris and Rachel Bizzell, Nicci Cook, Rocky Hurley, Tyler, Kailey and Caden Bizzell, Baylee and Tyler Ellington and Benton Bizzell; and 14 great-grandchildren.
