JENELL CASTLE

Funeral services for Jenell Castle, 85 of Monroe, LA will be held at 10:00 
AM, Wednesday, October 12, 2016 at Pentecostals of the Twin Cities. Rev. 
Mark Foster, Rev. Fred Foster and Rev. Jim DeRamus will officiate. Interment 
will follow at Old Bethel Cemetery, Clarks, LA under the direction of 
Kilpatrick Funeral Home West Monroe, LA.

Mrs. Castle was born May 8, 1931 in Clarks, Louisiana and passed away 
October 9, 2016 in Monroe, Louisiana. She was a member of Pentecostals of 
the Twin Cities. Mrs. Castle was preceded in death by husband; Charles 
Castle; son, James Edward Castle; parents, Elmer and Annie Douglas; step-
mother, Peggy Douglas; brother, Eual Douglas and son-in-law, Joe Long. When 
gathering in her room at the hospital, two words were often repeated: legend 
and legacy. In her last hours, a very large group of her family gathered 
around her bed to sing hymns of praise and worship to the King of Kings. She 
was the daughter of parents who pastored and founded churches across 
Louisiana. She was a Sunday School teacher and also worked for several child 
care centers. She retired at age eighty one from Jelly Bean Junction where 
she served as a teacher for twenty-one years. Her legacy is three daughters 
and several grandchildren, all committed to Christ and serving in various 
capacities of ministry. The legend is her outstanding ability to create 
delicious dishes for the table on Sundays. The Castle home after church on 
Sundays was only rivaled by the best restaurants in the city.

Mrs. Castle is survived by daughters; Cynthia DeRamus and husband Jim, 
Deborah Long, Judy Tate and husband James; sisters, Marjorie Cox and husband 
Doyle and Virginia Boothe and husband Daryl; brother, Boyd Douglas and wife 
Dee Dee; grandsons; Anthony Long and wife April and Heath Long and wife 
Lauren; granddaughters, Amanda Hearst and husband Vernon, Amber Handkins and 
husband Knox; great-grandchildren Japheth, Ashlyn, Austin, Schuyler, 
Malachi, Blake, Paris, Justin, Savannah, Wyatt, Ada and Sophie.

Pallbearers will be Eual Douglas, Jr., Charles Douglas, Rod Douglas, Duane 
Hearold, Jerrod Douglas, J. J. Holyfield, Rick Martin and Steven Douglas.

Memorials may be made to the Building Fund of the Pentecostals of the Twin 
Cities.

Visitation will be held Tuesday, October 11, 2016 from 6:00 PM until 8:00 PM 
at Pentecostals of the Twin Cities.
