Delma Whisenhunt Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Clardy Funeral Service - Idabel on Jan. 22, 2026.
Delma Nadine Coffey Whisenhunt was born on August 1, 1931, in Garvin, Oklahoma. She passed away on January 22, 2026 in North Richland Hills, Texas, at the age of 94. Delma lived a long and faithful Christian life, with unwavering devotion to her family and to the Lord. To many, she was known as Delma, but to those that loved her the most, she was simply "Grandmama", a steady presence, a source of comfort and the heart of the family. Delma was a member of the Bypass Church of Christ in Idabel, OK.

At the age of 18, Delma married her beloved husband, Ernest Gibson Whisenhunt. They built a life centered on God, family and commitment, and were married for over 55 years until Ernest's death in 2006. She was a proud mother to her 4 surviving sons: Russel (Aracely), Vernon (Jan), Gary (Chryste) and Kenny (Ada). Her family continued to grow throughout the years, and she cherished her role as grandmother and great grandmother - titles she wore with joy.

Her surviving grandchildren are Bryan Whisenhunt (Mary), Bree Stubbs (Tim), Taylor Coffman, Christin Reger (Shane), Nolan Whisenhunt (Kelly) and Chase Whisenhunt. Delma is survived by 8 great grandchildren, Reed Stubbs, Gage Stubbs, Brady Whisenhunt, Lane Reger, Brighton Coffman, Kendall Whisenhunt, Caroline Stubbs and Audrey Whisenhunt. Delma was a devoted church member who valued prayer, worship and fellowship. She also enjoyed gardening, baking for family gatherings and especially fishing. She leaves behind a legacy of faith, family and love that will continue through the generations she helped shape.

Visitation will be at 10:00 a.m. on Monday, February 2, 2026, at the Bypass Church of Christ in Idabel, OK. Services will begin at 11:00 a.m. Burial will follow the service at the Forest Hill Cemetery in Garvin,

Delma had many best friends but she and Eva Burks Strickland were very best friends. They bonded on the school bus to Idabel Grey High in 9th grade and graduated together in 1949. Throughout marriage, childbirth and life long events they stayed in contact with Del in Idabel and Eva in rural Garvin´s Farmers´ Hill Community. Momma lived a mile from where she was raised. They enjoyed shopping in Texarkana, eating out, gardening and bird watching. Class reunions were big events, too. When Momma got dementia Del was ever faithful to visit and check on her. Mom passed away at 79 and Del called from time to time to say how much she missed her. We had all that in common. Prayers for her sons and their families.
