August 3, 1937 - March 24, 2024

Runell (Nell) entered into rest peacefully with her daughter and son-in-law by her side on Sunday, March 24, 2024, after an extended illness.

She was a lifelong resident of Jenkins County. She was retired from Jockey, Int'l in Millen, Georgia, and a member of Oak Hill Baptist Church. After retirement, she enjoyed spending time back and forth from Millen to Savannah with her daughter and family. During this time she met and eventually married Willie "Hamp" Catrett in April of 2004 and they were married until he died in 2021. "Nell" was a private and quiet person who would help you however she could. After the death of "Hamp," she spent the remainder of her years with her daughter, grandsons, friends and neighbors at Brier Creek where many thought of her fondly.

She is preceded in death by her husband, Willie "Hamp" Catrett; her parents, Wallace Dean Rabitsch and Mary Wilson Rabitsch, sister, Reesie Rabitsch Turner; brother; Jimmy Dean Rabitsch.

Nell leaves behind her only child, a daughter, Teresa MacBride (Guy) of Savannah, Georgia; and two grandsons, River MacBride and Cameron MacBride of Savannah, Georgia. She also leaves behind a niece and five nephews as well as several great-nieces and great-nephews.

Graveside services will be held Thursday, March 28, 2024 at 2:00 p.m. at Millen Cemetery with Reverend Butch Taylor officiating. Visitation will be from 1:00 p.m. until time of service at Millen Cemetery.
