Nell McIntyre was born on December 7, 1922, to William Henry and Mattie Russell 
Turrentine in Jena, Louisiana. She was reared in a Christian home in Pollock. 
Her life was molded by her Christian upbringing and the "Great Depression". 
Nell graduated from Pollock High School in 1940 and from Louisiana College in 
Pineville with a degree in Home Economics in 1944. Her first husband of three 
years, Oliver Scarborough, preceded her in death. They did not have any 
children. During this marriage, Nell taught school in Alexandria and Buckeye. 
After his death, she became a house mother at Louisiana Tech in Ruston. 
Thereafter, Nell was employed as a Home Economist with Northeast Louisiana 
Power Cooperative in Winnsboro, where she met and married a young attorney, E. 
Rudolph McIntyre, Sr. in 1950. Together they had three children.

Mrs. McIntyre is preceded in death by two brothers: Charles Earl Turrentine and 
William Henry Turrentine, Jr. and by her husband of 64 years, Judge E. Rudolph 
McIntyre, Sr. Nell is survived by one brother, Russell Turrentine of 
Alexandria, and her three children: E. Rudolph McIntyre, Jr., husband of Ann 
Bolton McIntyre of Winnsboro, William Monroe McIntyre, husband of Nancy Steed 
McIntyre of Ruston, and Marsha McIntyre Spell, wife of Patrick Jay Spell of 
Shreveport; and six grandchildren: Mary Ann McIntyre White of Baton Rouge, 
Meredith Lee McIntyre Marshall of Houston, Joanna McIntyre Dugdale of Ruston, 
William Andrew McIntyre of Ruston, McIntyre James Spell and William Patrick 
Spell of Shreveport, eleven great-grandchildren and a host of nieces and 
nephews.

Nell McIntyre was an active member of First United Methodist Church in 
Winnsboro. She enjoyed many years of singing in the church choir and teaching 
the Pearl Harrison Sunday School class, as well as teaching youth Sunday School 
classes. Nell also served as President of the United Methodist Women's 
organization at the church. In addition, she enjoyed her volunteer work with 
the Women's Hospital Auxiliary at the Franklin Medical Center in Winnsboro for 
several years. Nell often substituted as a high school teacher. She and her 
husband traveled extensively throughout the world. Being with friends and 
family brought her much joy.

Nell McIntyre will be remembered for her laughter and nurturing ways, as well 
as her devotion as a wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend. 
Because she loved the Lord, she is with HIM now for eternity.

The family would like to express appreciation to TLC Hospice nurses, as well as 
marvelous care-givers, Rena Newton, Dorothy Slaughter, and Colleen Williams.

Pallbearers will be Robert John White, Jr., Benjamin Lank Marshall, William 
Andrew McIntyre, Bartlett Henderson Dugdale, McIntyre James Spell, William 
Patrick Spell, and Patrick Jay Spell.
