It is with great sadness, that we announce the passing of Emmalee Paytlin Mizell (Hite). She is the daughter of Chief Christie Burnett and Assistant Chief Bill Burnett. She served along side of her parents with pride and honor, every opportunity she had available. She chose a career path in serving others as an RN and worked as a nursing administrator for the Colbert County Jail in Alabama. She was loved, cherished, and respected among her family and her peers. She graduated from Biggersville High School and furthered her education at Northeast Mississippi Community College where she obtained her ADN.
Please be in prayer for her family, her friends, and her work family in the days to come. The void she leaves behind, will be tremendous, and hard to fill. Thank you Emmalee, for your dedication to service, and the love you had for serving others. We will love you forever.
Rest easy. We will take it from here sweet girl.

Celebrate the life of Emmalee Mizell, leave a kind word or memory and get funeral service information care of Memorial Funeral Home.
