Obituary published on Legacy.com by Yntema Funeral Home on Sep. 29, 2025.
Della's service will be lived streamed on the Zeeland Church of God Facebook page. On September 20th, 2025, Jesus lovingly welcomed His precious daughter, Della June Farkas, to her Heavenly Home, surrounded by her children while praising and worshipping Jesus. Della was born on January 17, 1953, in Olive Hill, Kentucky, to Glenn and Esther (Burton) Maggard. She was preceded in death by her beloved parents; her sisters Mary Elizabeth Maggard, Glenna Sue Buckler (and husband Larry), and Bertha Ellen McCoy; her daughter-in-law Kimberly Sue Bledsoe; and her great-grandchild Alphonse Lee Rose. Della will be remembered most for her unwavering devotion to her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. She was a true prayer warrior, a woman whose faith ran deep and steady. Her trust in God was absolute - not just in words, but in the way she lived every moment of her life. She never missed an opportunity to witness to others about God's love and saving grace. Even in her final weeks, as she lay in the hospital, she continued to be a vessel of light and hope. Though her voice was taken, her testimony never stopped. She lifted her hands in worship, a silent witness to God's presence in her life. Despite the doctors' diagnoses, she praised Him with all she had. She showed the world what it means to live by faith and not by sight. Della was also known for her incredible work ethic. Age never slowed her down. She gave 33 years of service to Haworth, followed by 12 years at Magna. Whether at work, at home, or in her community, Della poured her heart into everything she did. Her care for others, especially her family and friends, was evident in every interaction. She believed in the goodness within people and always sought to help them reach their full potential. She is survived by her loving children: Kathryn Dyer, Donna Lubbers, Joseph Bledsoe, Matthew Bledsoe, and Frank Farkas III. Her legacy continues through her grandchildren: Alexander Lubbers, Angelica Uehling, Anthony & Amanda Postma, Brittany & Jared Rose, Timothy Dyer, Robert Lubbers, Damion Bledsoe, Aragon Troeger, Frank Farkas IV, Rosemary Dyer, Lilyanna Farkas, Leigha Grant, Amadeus Grant, and Shiloh Farkas. And through her great-grandchildren: Nathan Rose, Dale Uehling and Olivia Rose. She is also survived by her siblings: Evelena & Charles Cooper, James Maggard, and brother-in-law Robert McCoy. Along with many cherished nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews. Funeral services will be at 12:00 PM on Monday, September 29, 2025, at Zeeland Church of God, 6441 Byron Rd, Zeeland Township, MI 49464. Visitation will be 4:00-6:00 PM on Sunday, September 28 at Yntema Funeral Home, 251 South State Street,
