Deloris French Obituary

Deloris French, 68, passed away on Nov 16, 2025, in Waverly, Tennessee.

Born on March 2, 1957, in Bell City, Kentucky, Deloris Ann French was the daughter of Morris and Sue Bynum. She grew up surrounded by family and later built a life rooted in dedication and care.

Deloris spent her working years at the Pella Factory before retiring. Her strong work ethic and commitment to her responsibilities were evident throughout her career.

A woman of many talents, Deloris had a deep passion for woodworking and furniture making. She found joy in crafting with her hands, creating pieces that reflected both skill and heart. Her love for this craft was more than a hobby, it was an expression of creativity that brought beauty into the lives of those around her.

Deloris was a former member of Lynnville Baptist Church, where she found spiritual connection and community.

She was a devoted wife to her late husband, Earl French, and a loving mother to her two sons, Cliff and Joshua French. Her family meant everything to her, and she poured herself into their lives with unwavering support and affection.

Deloris is also remembered by her siblings, Carol Harper, Greg Bynum, and Larry Bynum. She was preceded in death by her parents Morris and Sue Bynum; her husband, Earl French; and her sister, Martha Bynum.

Her warmth, strength, and presence will be deeply missed by all who knew her. May her memory bring comfort to those she leaves behind.
