Eva Maegene
Barber Guthrie, age 88, of Chewey, Oklahoma, departed this life surrounded
by family on Sunday, September 8, 2019 at Washington Regional Hospital in
Fayetteville, Arkansas.
Maegene was
born January 2, 1931 in Westville, Oklahoma, the daughter of Paul Thomas
Barber and Bertha Mae Neale Barber. Maegene married Harold William Guthrie
on December 19, 1949 and made their home in the Chewey community.
She is
survived by three daughters, Brenda Jones of Columbia, Mo., Rowena Roberts
and husband Greg of Chewey and Nancy Collins and husband Lanny of Baron. Six
grandchildren, Cason Jones and wife Jennifer, Willie Collins, Eva Roberts
Green and husband Michael, Erin Davis and husband Brian, Amber Galkiewicz
and husband Michael, April Vaughn and husband Cheston. Thirteen
great-grandchildren, six great-great-grandchildren, two brothers, Kenneth
Barber and wife Connie, and Dwayne Barber, one sister, Rana Testerman and
husband John, brother-in-law, Donvil Guthrie and wife Gloria Jo,
sister-in-law, Joyce Noble, sister-in-law, Loylea Dundom and husband Mick,
along with a host of extended family members and friends.
She is
preceded in death by her husband Harold and their infant son, son-in- law
Vernon Jones, father Paul and mother Bertha along with two sisters, Leona
Scism and Ruth Hamby.
Maegene was a
member of the Clearfork Community Church where she loved to worship the
Lord. Her love of music was often on display as she would sing specials in
church like One Day at a Time and Blessings on Me. She was a loving wife and
homemaker, thoughtful mother, gracious grandmother and loyal friend. In her
own words she was a “jack of all trades” who enjoyed sewing, cooking,
writing letters and cards to family and friends and using her “green-thumb”
to tend their garden. She worked tirelessly her entire life to provide a
loving home for her family, who meant the world to her. She was known
throughout the community as a wonderful cook and on many occasions would
find her home full of family and friends sitting around the kitchen table
enjoying a good meal and warm fellowship.
Molly, as many
called her, lived a simple life full of love and happiness. She brought so
much joy to all who knew her, and this world will not be the same now that
she’s gone. Maegene was an inspiration to many and now that her journey is
finished, she moves on to her eternal home in Heaven. She will be greatly
missed.
Funeral
services were held Wednesday, September 11, 2019 at Roberts & Hart Chapel,
Westville, with Bro. Terry Guthrie and Bro. Danny Crittenden officiating.
Interment followed at Proctor - Sanders Cemetery, Proctor.
