Beatrice Harvill Tittle, of Maumelle, died Friday night, June 12, 2020 at CHI Saint Vincent Hospital in Hot Springs.  She was born February 23,1923, to Fred and Jesse Harvill, the second youngest child in a family of 7 children.  She was the last surviving member of her immediate family.

She married the love of her life, CO Tittle, who died in 2014, just a few months shy of their 74 ^th anniversary.  She is survived by her daughter and son-in-law, Sandy and James Barrett, her grandson and his wife, Jason and Amber Barrett, and three great-granddaughters, Kathryn (Katy), Adley, and Adison.  She is also survived by her grand-puppies Nicholas and Tiger Lily.  She had many nieces and nephews, whom she thought of as her children after their parents had died.

Bea, as she was known to friends, was a lifelong Baptist and the daughter of a Baptist minister.  Although she was currently a member of the First Baptist Church in Maumelle, she was previously a member of the First Baptist Church in Benton.  She maintained contact to her close friends in Benton while making new ones in Maumelle. She was close to her Lord, reading the Bible everyday and frequently talked of her salvation and how grateful she was that Jesus had died on the cross to save her.

Bea thought of cooking and workingwithflowers as her gifts.  She shared her cakes, breads and cut flowers with shut-ins in her Church, whom she referred to "old people," although she was often older them. She had a "green thumb" and her yard and flowers were show stoppers.She took pride in her appearance and encouraged others to do the same.  She loved to eat out and was able to go to restaurants and take care of herself completely until March 17 ^th .

Bea will be honored with a graveside service on Wednesday, June 17 ^th at 2:00 in the afternoon                 at Pinecrest Memorial Park in Alexander. Pastor William Jacques of the First Baptist Church of Maumelle will officiate.  Memorials may be made to a charity of your choice, although she supported the Arkansas Food Bank and St. Jude Children's Hospital.  The family will respect the guidance established by the Arkansas Department of Health for Covid-19.
