Helen Lingle Warrington

July 31, 1920 — February 20, 2017

Helen “Nan Naw” Lingle Warrington (96), a resident of Alexandria, Louisiana for over 58 years, moved to heaven on Monday the 20th of February at St. Bernard’s Medical Center in Jonesboro, Arkansas.
Born in Crowville, Louisiana in 1920, Helen moved with her family to Monroe, Louisiana as a child. She married in 1939, and traveled with her husband. Helen settled with her family in Alexandria until 2015 when she moved to Fountain Place in Cherokee Village, Arkansas. In 2017, Helen celebrated the new year by moving to Jonesboro, Arkansas to live with family.
Throughout her years Helen enjoyed many professions, she worked as an accountant at Selman Army Airfield, an auditor for an Alexandria CPA firm, a former secretary at Horseshoe Drive Elementary, and as a florist at Stan’s in Alexandria. She served as President of the Airview Terrace Garden Club for many years, and was a devoted member of Baptist Temple Church.
Helen enjoyed socializing, crafting, ceramics, painting, flower arranging, word puzzles, the Disney channel, lemonade, ice cream, chocolate, and providing her family with an abundance of TLC.
Nan Naw (aka Big Diddy), as she loved to be called, will be remembered fondly for her sweet, loving disposition, and bright, contagious smile.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Buckley “Duane” Warrington; parents, Earl Lingle, Sr. and Thelma, and her three sons, Buckley “Little Buck” Warrington, Jr., John “Danny” Warrington, and Rickey J. Warrington.
