Rebecca Lynn Nohse Obituary

Ms. Rebecca Lynn Nohse, 73, passed away on Thursday, July 2, 2020 at home surrounded by family. The family will receive friends on Monday, July 6, 2020 from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at Trinity Heights Baptist Church and funeral services will begin at 12:00 p.m. with Brother Dan Lay officiating. There will be graveside services at 5:00 p.m. in Gurdon, Arkansas at South Fork Cemetery. Rebecca “Bebee” Lynn Nohse was born June 12, 1947 in Greensboro, North Carolina, a daughter of William Albert Nohse and Cora Frances Rickett. After graduating from C.E. Byrd High School in 1965, she attended Louisiana Tech University where she obtained her bachelor’s degree. She continued her education and received her master’s degree +30 in history. She taught at several different schools before finding her place at Haughton High School in 1976, where she remained for 12 years. In 1988, she accepted a position at Bossier Parish Community College. She shared her love of history with thousands of young adults and was the cheerleading coach for 14 years. In 2011, she “retired” from BPCC and continued to teach as an adjunct teacher at BPCC and Panola Community College. Finally, in December of 2019, she officially retired after 50 years of doing what she loved the most, teaching history. Her grandchildren were her pride and joy. John Burroughs; Stephanie Bost; Brody Larrivee; Tyler and William Loveday; Triniti, Peyton, Kennedy and Mackenzie Parker will always remember the love given from their “Bebee”. Rebecca was preceded in death by her parents, William Albert Nohse and Frances Rickett Nohse; nephew William Todd Gates and many aunts, uncles and cousins. She is survived by her three girls, Charlotte Christine Burroughs and husband, Roger, Tamara Michelle Parker and husband, Nick, and Stephanie Smith Loveday and husband, David; sisters Charlotte Gates and husband, Billy, Debra Friar and Marsha Pugh; 9 grandchildren, 2 great-grandchildren and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins.

The family would like to express their sincere appreciation to St Joseph’s Hospice, Dr. Allen Cox and Dr. Gerardo San Pedro for all the love and care our mother received. The family suggests that memorials may be made to Trinity Heights Baptist Church, 3820 Old Mooringsport Road, Shreveport, Louisiana 71107 or South Fork Cemetery Fund.
