Annie Bell Blackwell Barnes Long, age 91, passed away at her home on January 29, 2026.

Annie was born on April 6, 1934, in DeQueen, Arkansas, to John and Mary Blackwell. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and friend whose life was rooted in faith, family, and love.

Annie was a proud and faithful member of Elizabeth Missionary Baptist Church in Mountain View, Arkansas. Her faith guided her life and was evident in the care and compassion she showed to others.

She enjoyed watching The Price Is Right, Gunsmoke, working in her yard with all her flowers, and she cherished time spent with her family, who were truly the light of her life. Annie was known for her spicy sense of humor and her steady comforting presence that brought warmth and reassurance to everyone around her.
