Deloice Lillian Young
83, Silver Creek

Funeral services will be held at 11:00 am on Thursday, June 25, 2026, at Hathorn Funeral Home in Columbia for Deloice Lillian Young, 83 of Silver Creek, who passed away Tuesday, June 23, 2026. Interment will be at Calvary Baptist Church Cemetery in Silver Creek.

The Young family will receive guests on Wednesday evening from 5:00 pm up until 8:00 pm at Hathorn Funeral Home.

Deloice, a devoted woman of faith and family, was born in Star City, Arkansas, on November 19, 1942. She later married the love of her life, James, at the age of 21. In 1972, the couple answered a divine calling and moved to Mississippi, where James became the Pastor of Silver Creek Assembly of God Church. Deloice served faithfully by his side for the rest of his life, embodying the true heart of ministry as the perfect pastor's wife. Though she was legally blind, her life was defined by what she could do rather than what she couldn't; she was a woman of remarkable talent and skill, finding great joy in crocheting, quilt making, reading her Bible, and completing word searches. Above all else, Deloice cherished her walk with her Savior and the family she loved so dearly, leaving behind a legacy of unwavering faith, strength, and grace.

She was preceded in death by her Husband of 40 years, Rev. James C. Young; her Parents, Clyde & Ellie Harrison Kellum; three Brothers, Parnell Kellum, Leo Kellum, Otis Kellum; and one Sister, Myrtle Kellum Farley.

She was survived by her two Sons, Clyde C. Young (Vicky), of Columbia, James A. Young (Sharon), of Natchez; and two Grandchildren, Wesley V. Young (Claire Gray), Daniel C. Young, both of Columbia.

Shirley Jean Saucier
78, Foxworth

Funeral services will be held at 11:00 am on Friday, June 19, 2026, at Hathorn Funeral Home in Columbia for Shirley Jean Saucier, 78 of Foxworth, who passed away Sunday, June 14, 2026. Interment will be at Foxworth Cemetery in Foxworth.

The Saucier family will receive guests on Thursday evening from 5:00 pm up until 8:00 pm at Hathorn Funeral Home.

Born in Columbia on May 1, 1948, Shirley’s roots ran deep in the community. Growing up, she learned the values of family and hard work while helping at her parents' country store, Morris' Grocery, in Foxworth. This early experience paved the way for a remarkable, 53-year career with Avon. As the dedicated District Manager for the area, Shirley’s passion and leadership earned her the prestigious "Ms. Albie Award" numerous times.

Beyond her professional achievements, Shirley’s truest joy was found in her family and simple pleasures. In her early days, she loved nothing more than going camping with her husband, Jim. Her heart belonged to her grandchildren; she selflessly raised and cared for them, pouring her love into their lives each opportunity she had. Shirley could always be found catching up on her favorite show, "Days of Our Lives." Her warmth, work ethic, and dedication to her family will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

She was preceded in death by her Parents, Ellis Morris & Helen Holmes Morris. She was survived by her Husband of 61 years, Jim Saucier, of Foxworth; her Son, Kevin Saucier (Dorothy), of Foxworth; her Daughter, Kim Ham (Haskel), of Foxworth; one Brother, Danny Morris (Denise), of Foxworth; one Sister, Sue Barber (Joe), of Columbia; five Grandchildren, Kent Saucier (Abby), of Columbia, Ty Saucier (Samantha), of Foxworth, Kaitlyn Ham, of Foxworth, Josh Ham (Ryley), of Foxworth, Sarah Kay Saucier, of Columbia; seven Great Grandchildren, Wesson Saucier, Paislee Saucier, Bristol Saucier, Harper Welch, Hazel Welch, Emma Raynes, Baelynn Case.

Mrs. Saucier will be carried to her final resting place by those honored to serve as Pallbearers: Josh Ham, Ryan Shirley, Mike McMillion, Haskel Ham, Kent Saucier, and Ty Saucier.
