LEGACY FEBRUARY  2026
JULIE CAROLYN JACKSON OSTTEEN

Funeral services for Julie Ostteen are scheduled for 2 PM Thursday, February 26, 
2026, at Harmony Baptist Church, with Bro. Alan Eppinette officiating. Interment 
will follow in Carter Cemetery, under the direction of Golden Funeral Home. The

Julie Carolyn Jackson Ostteen, a member of Harmony Baptist Church, passed away 
Saturday, February 21, 2026, at the age of eighty-six. She loved the Lord with 
all her heart and prayed daily for her children, grandchildren, and great-
grandchildren. "Miss Julie" was also a "momma" to many of her kids' friends over 
the years. They were always welcome around her "round table" for food, 
fellowship, laughter, and words of wisdom.

Julie worked as society editor of the Bastrop Daily Enterprise for several years 
under Nathan Bolton. She was blessed with a wonderful ability to write 
beautiful, descriptive articles about weddings, showers, and parties that 
pleased everyone in the Morehouse Parish area.

After she left the Enterprise, Julie worked in medical records at Morehouse 
General Hospital, retiring in 1989. After her retirement, she really enjoyed 
cooking for others and even wrote a cookbook which she shared with family and 
friends. Julie also wrote a book of stories from her childhood for her family 
entitled, "The Sharecropper's Daughter."

She is survived by her husband of sixty-nine years, Carlton Ostteen, Jr.; 
children, Michael Eugene Ostteen (Donna), Janet Reneau Ostteen Whitehead, and 
Nancy Carl Ostteen Patrick (Barry); honorary daughter, Barbie Johnson; sister, 
Dorothy Jackson McKean; grandchildren, Laura Ostteen, Carlton Whitehead, Dylan 
Patrick, Julie Claire Patrick Brown; five great-grandchildren, and numerous 
nieces and nephews.

Mrs. Ostteen is preceded in death by her parents, James Theodore Jackson and 
Willie Lee "Sue" Pitts Jackson; siblings, Charles Ray Jackson, Bobbie Ruth 
Schwartz, Billie Gene Jackson, William Austin Jackson, Georgia Claire Jackson 
Manno, Calvin Wesley Jackson; and son-in-law, Tom Whitehead.
