Darlene was born on January 13, 1940, the daughter of Russell and Ethel (Schnitzer) Waite. She was united in marriage to Cloyce Baldwin on June 16, 1957. They are now reunited in heaven.

She leaves four great-grandchildren: Katelyn, Joe, and Ryan Baldwin, all of Shelbina, and Alyssa Glasson of Holliday.

She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Cloyce; sister Louise Arbuckle; brothers Bill Waite and Lonnie Waite; and her son-in-law, Charlie Wilkerson. She also leaves behind many nieces and nephews.

Yesterday

We were friends in high-school. Played basketball together. Then she married Cloyce and moved across the creek. She would call me and would say " what's going on across the creek?" Then we would chat for a while. I missed when that stopped. My sincere sympathy and love.
