Imogene Sarasua, 83, of Pryor, passed away on Friday, July 18,
2025, in Colcord, Oklahoma. She was born on July 24, 1941, in Tulsa to
Philip and Geraldine (Ellis) Blackburn. A devoted homemaker throughout her
life, Imogene found her greatest joy in caring for others. She was married

their family with strong values, open hearts, and a home always full of
love. Imogene was a mom not only to her own children but to many others
along the way. She had a zest for life and enjoyed traveling, reading, and
attending musicals. She especially loved watching John Wayne and classic
westerns. Bingo nights and trips to Branson were among her favorite
pastimes.
