Celebration of Life for Mary Culpepper

A Celebration Of Life for Mary Culpepper will be held at 1:00pm on Saturday, June 17th at the Amsterdam Community Center.

The family does realize this is Father’s Day weekend and many people probably have plans that day but if you’re able to stop by and enjoy some food & company, everyone is welcome.

Mary was born on April 7, 1960 in Beaver, Oklahoma, the daughter of Joseph M. Harrelson and Ernestine Shaw.

She was known by many as the “Blue Streak” seen flying through Butler Walmart, where she retired from in 2022. Mary never knew a stranger, and was always willing to lend a hand to anyone at anytime, no matter how busy she was.

Mary was preceded in death by her ten siblings. Survivors include her mother Ernestine Shaw, sister Billie Staub (Richie) of Brownwood, Texas, husband John R. Culpepper of the home, daughters Cassie Miller (Michael) of Pleasanton, Kansas, Julie Schmidt (Michael) of Amoret, Missouri, sons John D. Culpepper (Misty) of Pleasanton, Kansas, James W. Culpepper (Dona) of Hume, Missouri, sixteen grandchildren, and two great-grand children.
