She was born February 14, 1923, in Eros, Arkansas the daughter of William Vernon "Bill" and Nola (McEntire) Copeland.
Mozelle was a pastor's wife who absolutely loved her job and everything associated with it. She had a heart for missions and spent her life serving others.
Prior to her marriage, she worked for Obermans/Levi Strauss in Harrison where she made many friends.
People loved to hear her laugh and her giggle was her trademark. She was always on the go. She dearly loved her family and her church. Mozelle was a skilled seamstress who made all the clothing for herself and her three daughters. She also had an excellent alto voice and was in a quartet that regularly sang on the radio in the 1940s. But most of all, Mozelle was a wonderful, loving person who will be dearly missed.
She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband of 40 years, Rev. William H. Richardson; her daughter, Pamela Kay Fallis; two brothers, Ralph Copeland, and Rev. Robert Copeland; and her sisters, Ruby Anthony, Dessie Milum and Otha Akins.
Mozelle is survived by her daughters, Brenda Richardson of Little Rock; and Rhonda (and Bill) Brown of Pottsboro, Texas; her “adopted” daughter, Deborah Martin; and many other family and friends.
Funeral service will be at 1:00 p.m. Wednesday, January 18, 2017 at First Assembly of God Church, with the Rev. Cecil Culbreth officiating.
Visitation is one hour prior to the service at the church, all under the direction of Roller-Christeson Funeral Home.
Interment is in Maplewood Cemetery.
Honorary pallbearers are the Dorcus Sunday School Class.
