From Bishinik, newspaper of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma:
Muzetta Thompson, age 77, passed away on March 10, 2001 at the Sunnybrook Health Care Facility in Corpus Christi, Texas. Muzetta was born May 21, 1923 in Stockton, Missouri to Jesse Leroy Todd and Nora Hattie Adams. She moved with her parents and siblings to Lee's Summit, Missouri in 1928, living near Chapman Dairy. She married Charles Merrell Thompson on February 18, 1939 at Warrensburg, Missouri. He died on June 7, 1962. While her husband was in the United States Naval Reserve in World War II, Muzetta lived for part of the war in New York City, Tampa, Florida and Corpus Christi, Texas. Following the war the couple made their home in Lee's Summit until 1946 when they moved to what was then Hickman Mills (now within the city limits of Kansas City), where she remained until 1977. At that time she returned to Lee's Summit where she lived until 1991 when she moved with her twin sister Leota to Harrisonville, Missouri. In 1994 she and her sister moved to Springfield, Missouri until she relocated with her son to Lawton, Oklahoma in 1996. In 1998 she moved with her son and family to Corpus Christi, Texas where she remained until her death. During the Second World War she worked at Lake City Army Ammunition Plant near Blue Springs, Missouri and later worked for nineteen years as a nurse at Truman Medical Center East (formerly Jackson County Public Hospital) near Lee's Summit, retiring from that position in 1977. Until her health declined she was an active member of the Lee's Summit and Harrisonville Congregations of Jehovah's Witnesses, having been one of Jehovah's Witnesses since 1951. At the time of her death she was a member of the Kingsville (Texas) English Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses. Muzetta was also a member of the Clopton Family Association (descendants of Sir William Clopton), the Thompson-McCoy Choctaw & Chickasaw Descendants Association (her husband's family) and the Cherokee Nation (she being a descendant of the Carter and Muskrat families). She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, two children, Larry William Thompson and Georgia Maxine Thompson; one grandchild, Jeniffer Shaunde' Thompson; three brothers, Norman Leroy Todd, Orville Jesse Todd and Kenneth James Todd; three sisters Blanche Todd, Jarlen Nadine Boten and Muzetta's twin sister Leota Mathis, one nephew and two nieces. She is survived by her son Jerry Charles "J.C." (and Barbara) Thompson of Fallon, Nevada; one grandson Jesse Tylee Thompson of San Antonio, Texas. One brother, Arlie Todd of Springfield, Missouri; two sisters Eva McMillin of Sibley, Missouri and Mikye Barr of Paradise, California and well as numerous nieces and nephews. Arrangements are being made through the Trevino Funeral Home in Corpus Christi, Texas. Burial will be in the Lee's Summit Cemetery with services to be announced. Donations can be made to the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, Brooklyn, New York, Kingdom Hall Building Fund.Following the death of Charles M. Thompson in 1962, Muzetta remarried Frank D. Mortenson but was divorced 13 months later. She retook the name Thompson and never remarried after that point.
