Virginia Baker Bozeman (Nell) Obituary
Zachary, LA - God called Nell home on April 6, 2026 and she is rejoicing with her loved ones already in Heaven. She was born on December 10, 1939 two days before her high school sweetheart and husband of 41 years, Ike Bozeman, Jr. Ikie preceded her in death. She was preceded in death by her son C.O. Bozeman and her grandson Alex Ryan "Cowboy" Bozeman. Nell and Alex or "Al" as she called him had an extra special relationship. Daughter of Percy and Margaret Baker and daughter-in-law of Ike and Ruth Bozeman. Also preceded in death by her sisters Carol Ann Baker, Betty Jo Baker Mayfield, and Brenda Bozeman Caldwell. She is survived by her daughter Jennie Lynn Bozeman who had the pleasure of sharing a home with her. Nell was beyond compare as a mama to Jennie Lynn and C.O. and as a maw maw to Alex and all his friends. She was a lifetime resident of Zachary and a lifelong member of Zachary United Methodist Church where she met Ikie in Sunday School as young children. She also worshipped at Bethany Church with her daughter the past twenty years. Special thanks to Catina Dunaway her former daughter-in-law who visited weekly helping with anything she needed. Special thanks to her cherished friend and nurse Melanie Vicellio,RN. Much appreciation to Dr. Andrew Kuyoro, Chaplain at Hospice of Baton Rouge, with whom she enjoyed much spiritual encouragement, scripture, prayer, and laughter. Nell requested that Chaplain Andrew speak at her Graveside Service on Friday, April 10, at 2:00. Azalea Rest Cemetery, 5140 LA-964, Zachary. Nell truly was God's Special Servant and will be forever loved and missed by all who knew her.
