Morgan City, La., born November 24, 1931 in Columbus, Miss., passed away on 
Tuesday evening, December 1, 2015 at Cedar Ridge Healthcare & Rehab, in

Everyone who knew Elizabeth called her Jeanine. She was an active member of 
Crossview Independent Assembly of God Church and a Senior Bible study teacher 
at O’Fallon Assembly of God. She loved the Lord. Jeanine attended Mississippi 
State College for Women and Nicholls State University in Thibodaux, La., 
earning a Bachelor’s degree in Music. She taught piano for more than 30 years. 
Jeanine was an amateur Egyptologist and made several trips to Egypt so she 
could study the culture and visit the ruins.

She will be sadly missed and lovingly remembered by her children, Jeanie Hood 
of O’Fallon, Ill., and Hendrick van Suffelen of Carencro, La., and her 
grandchildren, Colten Hood, Shaughn, Rick, and CJ.

Elizabeth was preceded in death by her husband Henk van Suffelen, a native of 
Delft, Holland in 1985; her parents Dewey and Irene Bowling; and her brother 
Dewey Bowling Jr.
