A private family service will be held under the direction of Rush Funeral Home, Oakdale. She was preceded in death by her husband of 53 years, Herbert Alden Nesom, and is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, Don and Beverly Nesom of Oakdale, daughter and son-in-law Suzybelle and Jimmy Hopson of Delhi, and daughter and son-in-law Jan and Chuck Horton of Bossier City, in addition to eight grandchildren; Laura Nesom Smith and her husband Steve, Todd Nesom and his wife Hallie, Kathy Nesom Spetter and her husband Chris, Jeff Nesom and his wife Lorena, Suzette Hopson Doughty and her husband David, Stacey Hopson Burgess and her husband Mark, Angie Horton Costakis, Amy Horton Bullock and her husband Adam and thirteen great grandchildren. Our mother was a living example of a Proverbs 31 woman: strong yet gentle, with an open hand and heart, devoted to serving her family and the Lord. She loved a good strong cup of coffee with a slice of pie, and was never happier than when surrounded by her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. We give special thanks to the staff of The Oaks for opening their hearts to our mother, and caring for her like she was a member of their own family. "Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears the Lord will be praised. … Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her, saying, 'Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.'"
