of Quitman, AR
November 4, 1952 - November 11, 2025
Marion L. Boshell, 73, of Quitman, Arkansas passed away on November 11, 2025. He was born on November 4, 1952 in Etowah, Arkansas.
He is survived by his wife of 53 years, Donna Boshell; sons, Marion J. Boshell and Marion A. Boshell; daughters, Maranda Saunders and Misty Atkin; sister, Robbie McDole; nine grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his son, Morgan Boshell; parents, Marion and Colleen; sister, Linda and brother, Byron.
Marion was a proud truck driver and one of the best to ever do it, although few dared to ride with him in a car. In retirement, he enjoyed ''helping'' his wife by regularly picking up new furniture and spending time with his family, whom he loved fiercely.
He will be remembered for his strong will, sharp wit and the kind of stubbornness that only comes from a life well lived.
Services are set for Friday, November 14, 2025 with Visitation from 11:00 AM to1:00 PM followed by Celebration of Life at 1:00 PM at Mt Bethel Free Will Baptist Church in Rose Bud, Arkansas. Interment to follow at Mt. Bethel Cemetery. All services are under the direction of Roller-Daniel Funeral Home, Searcy.

I am so sorry for your family's loss. I remember meeting "Granddad" for the first time my first year teaching at Quitman Public Schools. He was always smiling, cutting up and forever giving me credit for taming his feral granddaughter for school. I loved hearing his opinions and views on everything! I will miss him dearly.
