Rena Mae (Tootsie) Barnett Bullock, 84, passed away peacefully at home surrounded by her family on November 20, 2022. She was truly a gift from God. She was a loving, humble, compassionate, understanding, family oriented and devoted Christian woman. She was one of the most beautiful souls one could ever meet. She loved God and cared deeply for her family and friends. Always ready to offer help to anyone that needed it. She was an active member of Crooked Creek Baptist Church that she loved dearly. She was also a retired factory worker for 20+ years.

Tootsie taught her family to always love God above anything else and she showed us what true love is.

A special thank you goes out to her hospice nurse Heather Riley and to her sitters Pam Maye, Carolyn Magee, and Dorothy Buckley that devoted their time to care for Tootsie in her time of need. Acknowledging a moment's notice to Adam Waldon.
