Wanda Sue Vinyard

Wanda Sue (Wyatt) Vinyard, 74, went to her heavenly home on February 4, 2026, passing away in Garvin, Oklahoma, surrounded by her loving family.

Wanda was born on July 1, 1951, in Fort Towson, Oklahoma, the daughter of Charlie Thomas Wyatt and Mayme Colleen (Rush) Wyatt. She was preceded in death by her parents; beloved husband, Clarence Wesley Vinyard; daughter, Carolyn Oxford; brothers, Hubert Wyatt, Curly Wyatt, and Gilbert Wyatt; sisters, Betty Jane Bartlett, Mary Irene Wyatt and Linda Sue Harper; and special nephew, Charles Thompson.

Wanda spent most of her life in Valliant, Oklahoma and was a graduate of Valliant High School, Class of 1971. She married her loving husband, Clarence Vinyard on July 21, 1994. Together, they built a legacy of hard work, dedication to their family and love. They baled hay for numerous local ranches and farms, spending countless hours on the tractor and most importantly, with each other and their children. Wanda's love for the outdoors didn't stop at the hay field. She spent hours every year picking pecans and you could often find her sitting out on her porch enjoying a glass of sweet tea and occasionally, a taco or two.

Wanda's feisty spirit was a trait that she was known for. She never shied away from speaking her mind or standing up for what she believed in. That same spirit made her visits with friends and family, whether in person or over the phone, lively and memorable. Conversations with Wanda were never dull, filled with laughter, stories and wisdom. Above all else, Wanda's love for her family knew no bounds and her legacy will live on in the hearts of her family forever.

Wanda is survived by her family; children, Della Lambert of Mangum, OK, Delbert Roberts and wife, Dorothy of Sawyer, OK, Peggy Jackson of Tahlequah, OK and Brian Vinyard and wife, Lorinda of Swink, OK; sisters, Alvie Andrew of Millerton, OK, Elizabeth Howard of Millerton, OK, Lois Wells of Murray, KY and Sandra Howard of Millerton, OK; grandchildren, Helen Roberts, Chantae Ornelas and husband, Johnny, April Roberts, Dakota Vinyard, Montana Vinyard, Brandon Vinyard, Joel Jackson, Mark Jackson, Dustin Oxford, Robin Parnell, Nellie Cook, Newton Ruffin and Blaine Lambert; numerous great grandchildren; special nieces and nephews, Evan Wyatt, Jessica Wyatt, Cristina Aguero, Charlie Howard, LaDyna Bartlett, Dustin Rothleutner and Shella Rothleutner; along with a host of other family, friends and loved ones.
