FRANCES ALMETA THARPE WOODARD

Funeral services for Frances Almeta Tharpe Woodard, 81, of Monroe, will be 
held at 10:00 AM, Monday, October 3, 2016, in the chapel of Mulhearn Funeral 
Home, Sterlington Rd, with Rev. Tim Neustifter officiating. Interment will 
follow at Mulhearn Memorial Park Cemetery.

Mrs. Woodard died Friday, September 30, 2016, after a long illness in 
Monroe, LA.

She was a member of St. Paul's United Methodist Church in Monroe.

Mrs. Woodard was born November 23, 1934, in Epps, Louisiana; she was the 
third child of the late Lewis Cordell "Ray" Tharpe and Nell Hawkins Tharpe.

Mrs. Woodard worked for many years at the Olinkraft (later Manville, 
Riverwood) paper mill in West Monroe, serving as a supervisor in the data 
processing department until her retirement.

Mrs. Woodard loved to entertain family and friends and it gave her a chance 
to show off her passion for cooking. With her collection of over 700 
cookbooks and assorted family recipes, she had much to draw ideas from. When 
she wasn't cooking, she and her husband Johnny could often be found on the 
weekends scouring rummage and garage sales for bargains.

Mrs. Woodard was preceded in death by her husband of more than 46 years, 
Johnny Woodard; her parents; sister, Jacqueline Faye Tharpe Adams Hamer; and 
brother, Dwain C. Tharpe.

Survivors include her son, Phillip Randall "Randy" Hunnicutt and wife Sally; 
two grandchildren, Keith Hunnicutt and wife Jessica, and Jarrett Todd 
Hunnicutt and wife Alisa; stepson, Mike Woodard and wife Gaylynn; two step-
grandchildren, Michael Woodward and Courtney Woodard all of Sedalia, MO; 
sister, Sybil Tharpe Shivers of Monroe; sister-in-law, Mary Pat Tharpe of 
Crowville; and several nieces and nephews.

Pallbearers will be Keith Hunnicutt, Todd Hunnicutt, Ray Shivers, Kent 
Shivers, J.P. Ladart, Raymond Self and Mark Anyon.

Visitation will be 5:00 PM until 7:00 PM, Sunday, October 2, 2016 at 
Mulhearn Funeral Home, Sterlington Rd. Monroe, LA.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks you make a memorial donation to Pilots
