Neghagean Bohannon (Watts), age 88 of Marshall, Arkansas passed on to her heavenly home on Tuesday, December 23rd, 2025 at her home with family by her side. She was born in Morning Star, Arkansas on June 11th, 1937 to Lomery Watts and Cora Cypert Watts. Neghagean had two brothers, AC Watts and LaVaughan ''Von'' Watts who precede her in death.

They had two children, Debbie Bohannon Elliott and Diane Bohannon Butler.

Alva and Neva lived in California for several years before returning to Arkansas. Neva worked in the community until she and Alva opened Bo's Fish House in Morning Star. After closing the restaurant, she became a fulltime homemaker until Alva's passing. In the following years, she loved shopping and traveling with her friends, Albert, Brenda and Morlene. She enjoyed going to shows in Branson and going out to eat. But her favorite place was at home with her flowers, trees and family. Neva stayed active until shortly before her passing.

Neghagean is survived by one sister, Evalene Ferguson; one daughter, Diane Butler (David); one granddaughter, Kimberly Horton (Jonathan); grandson, Anthony Elliott (Ashley); three great-grandkids, Adyson, Ace and Ayden Elliott; two nieces, Kelly Ferguson and Christy Ferguson; great nieces and nephews, Dillon, Chayce, Journey, Christina, Kash and Cory; and one great-great nephew, Koda.
