Bio

Margie Juanita Neeley was born June 3, 1927, in Hazen, Arkansas to Elwood and Sally Wheatley. She went to be with the Lord on July 30, 2021. The oldest of 14 children, she learned at a young age to care for others. After having 9 children of her own she set out to further her talents by attending nursing school. She graduated LPTN school at the Benton State Hospital in June of 1970. There she worked until her retirement. She worked many years in long-term care units around the Benton area, where she took to heart the responsibility of caring for the elderly and those in need. When she finally retired from nursing altogether, she set out with her husband Pete to fish, camp, and enjoy life. She will forever be the anchor that holds the legacy of her family together. Miss Margie as many would call her, was a member of Fairplay Baptist Church for over 70 years and was a devoted servant of her Savior, Jesus Christ. She was preceded in death by her parents, 5 of her siblings, and 4 grandchildren. She is survived by her 9 children, 32 grandchildren, 54 great-grandchildren, and 15 great-great-grandchildren. Visitation will be at Roller-Alcoa Funeral Home, 6700 Alcoa Road, Benton, Arkansas 72015 from 6 to 8 P.M. on Wednesday, August 4, 2021. The service will be Thursday at 10 A.M. at Fairplay Baptist Church 8516 Fairplay rd. Benton Arkansas. Interment will follow at Fairplay cemetery after service.
