Candler Yarborough Obituary
1939 ~ 2015
Ocean Springs
Captain Candler Yarborough, 75, passed away peacefully at his home surrounded by his family on Sunday, April 26, 2015.
Candler was an exceptional husband and loving father. He retired as a distinguished captain after 33 years of service with Delta Airlines. Candler enjoyed helping the community by volunteering as a fireman and paramedic while residing in Houston. He was a proud patriot and U.S. Air Force Veteran.
He is survived by his wife and best friend of 47 years, Linda Rabby Yarborough; his sister, Ann Neil; his daughters, Cheryl, Julie and Debbie; his granddaughter, Keira; and his nephew, Jimmy Neil.
Everyone who remembers Candler is asked to celebrate his life in their own way. Raising a glass of their favorite drink in his memory would be quite appropriate.
Friends and family will come together at a later date to celebrate his life.
The Ocean Springs Chapel of Bradford-O'Keefe Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements.
