Juletta "Judy" Pittman's Obituary
Juletta "Judy" Pittman, age 82, of Bella Vista, Arkansas, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, April 16, 2025, in Bentonville. She was born on April 5, 1943, in Memphis, Tennessee, the beloved daughter of Lloyd Stanton Pinnell and Ella Cleo Donelson Pinnell.
Judy was a woman of deep faith and unwavering devotion to her family and church. As the daughter of a pastor, she developed a love for music early in life and became the church pianist while still very young—a role she carried with heartfelt dedication. Professionally, Judy served with integrity and kindness in her roles at Sears Credit Union and later as the secretary for the athletic department at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock.
She was preceded in death by her parents and by her loving husband, Michael Lester Pittman.
Judy’s legacy lives on through her family: her son and daughter-in-law, Mark and Missi Pittman; her grandson, Jonathan Pittman, and his wife, Katlyn; her granddaughter, Mandy Pittman Stout, and her husband, Tell. She was also a proud great-grandmother to Kaydence Elizabeth Ann Pittman, Jaxton Duane Tyler Pittman, and Deacon Wade Pittman.
A graveside service honoring Judy’s life will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Monday, April 21, 2025, at Pinnacle Memorial Gardens, under the direction of Nelson-Berna Funeral Home in Rogers.
Judy will be remembered for her grace, her musical spirit, and the love she gave so freely to her family and all who knew her.
