Elsie Mae Tabor, 99, of Pyatt, Arkansas passed away on Monday, August 4, 2025 in Mountain Home, Arkansas.

She was born on November 19, 1925 to the late Jack and Minnie (Williams) Waltman in Everton, Arkansas. A lifelong resident of the area, Elsie was a 1943 graduate of Olvey High School. She married J.T. Tabor on November 16, 1946 and was married for 63 wonderful years before his death in 2009. Through the years Elsie enjoyed many things, country music, flowers, reading, playing piano and crossword puzzles. She was a fan of the Arkansas Razorbacks and The Cardinals, but she was the biggest fan when it came to watching her son and grandkids play basketball and other sports. When it came to traveling Elsie always had her purse ready to go, she liked to go to Branson and watch the shows. Most people knew her from Tabor-McLean Convenience Store in Pyatt; a business she was very proud of, it was the gathering place for a lot of people. Elsie was a member of the Pyatt Church of Christ and loved spending quality time with her family.
