Arthurine Savoie Harrell, a longtime resident of Franklin, was called home to her Lord and Savior at the age of 85 at Maison Teche Nursing Center in Jeanerette on Friday, May 1, 2020.
Arthurine was born on March 8, 1935 in Sunset, one of six children born to Adam and Bernadette Savoie. Many will remember her from her many years working as a seamstress and if you were fortunate to have been fed by her you would definitely remember her for her wonderful cooking. She was a faithful Christian and member of Myette Point Baptist Church and absolutely loved singing church hymns. Although she will be deeply missed, her family takes great comfort in knowing that she put her faith in the Lord and is now healed of the infirmities she suffered from in this earthly life.
Those she leaves to cherish her memory include her daughter, Francine H. Scelfo and her husband John “Bubba”; her son, Denny F. Harrell and his companion Mary; two grandchildren, Derek Harrell and Adriana Williams and her husband Byron; one great grandson, Malachi Williams; her brother, Norwood “Joe” Savoie; her sister, Relita S. Breland; as well as numerous nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her husband of 49 years, Forrest “FD” Harrell Jr.; her parents, Adam Savoie and Bernadette Prejean Savoie; two brothers, Ackel and Tommy Savoie; and one sister, Katrina Lecompte.
Due to the current health concerns and mandated restrictions in accordance with limited gatherings, visitation and funeral services for Arthurine will be held privately with the family in Perpetual Park Cemetery. Her pastor, Rev. Joseph Sauce, will conduct the services.
The family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the staff of Maison Teche Nursing Center and Hospice of Acadiana for their loving care given. In lieu of flowers the family asks that contributions be made to either Myette Point Baptist Church, Maison Teche Nursing Center, of Hospice of Acadiana.
