Nell R. Villines was reunited with her beloved son Michael Paul on July 10, 2019 in Collinsville, OK. She was born August 21, 1929 to Mrytle Johnson and Oren Braudrick in Checotah, OK. She was a hair stylist and manicurist for decades, retiring only when she could no longer lift her arms to provide the superior services to her friends.
She is preceded in death by her son, Micheal Villines; husbands, Lon Villines and Bill Downs; mother, Mrytle Monroe; and sister, Shirley Haynes.
Survived by niece and caregivers Kathryn and husband Henry Lankford of Collinsville, OK; cousin and close confidant Sherrian and husband Toby Hollingsworth; and numerous other extended family who all loved and adored her.
She enjoyed reading the Tulsa World paper and doing the crossword puzzles (in ink) daily, going to the horse races and going to her "office" (casino). She also enjoyed cooking, and being a great hostess to family and her patrons.
We want to extend a special thank you to Grace Hospice for their great, loving and compassionate care of "Aunt Nell "during her time she was with them.
Graveside service will be at 1:00 P.M., Saturday, July 13, 2019 at Floral Haven Cemetery, Broken Arrow, OK. Moore's Southlawn 918-663-2233 share memories at www.moorefuneral.com
