Reola Bealer

October 25, 1930 – August 7, 2021

Reola Bealer, affectionately known as “Honey”, of Ponca City, Oklahoma received her well deserve wings August 7, 2021, at her home with her son and daughter by her side. She was 90 years old.

Reola Bell Bealer was born on October 25, 1930, in Reedville, Arkansas, to the late Joshua and Laura (Martin) Bell.

She married the late Asbeary Bealer, Sr. in 1948 in Pickens, Arkansas. She retired from Titus Products, now Johnson Control.

She was an Evangelist Missionary with the Church of God In Christ and nothing meant more to her than her life with the Lord. She was a faithful member and pillar of Johnson Temple COGIC in Ponca City, OK.

Reola was a true definition of a Godly mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend. She was a lover of all people. She was a prayer warrior. The scripture says to call for the mourning women, that they may come; and send for skillful wailing women, that they may come. She lived her life so God could use her any way-any how.

She was an avid reader with a collection of books to prove it. Her time was spent shopping, traveling to church events, and family gatherings.

She is survived by her sister: Veola Thompson of Pine Bluff, AR; her children: Betty Jackson of Columbia, SC, A. Herman Bealer, Jr (Joylene) of Ft. Worth, Tx; Sharilyn Bealer of Pine Bluff, Ar; Joice Hoskin-Banks and Barry Rice (Malinda) of Ponca City, OK. sister-in-law, Flora Bell of Mitchelville, AR; 17 grandchildren, 37 great-grandchildren and 10 great-great grandchildren.
