Clarence DeWain Wilkinson
August 11, 1931 - April 17, 2026

Clarence DeWain Wilkinson, 94, of Bartlesville, passed away April 17th, at Bartlesville Health and Rehabilitation Center.

Clarence was born August 11, 1931, to Orlando & Annie Wilkinson of Vera, Oklahoma.

He was preceded in death by his wife of seventy years, Marcilee, sisters Bessie Rayborn and Clara May Calvert, Ed Wilkinson, William W. Wilkinson, Wilbur Wilkinson, and Curtis Wilkinson.

Clarence served in the Korean War for two years. Shortly after returning home in 1955, he married Marcilee Furnas of Elk City, Kansas. He was a devoted, hardworking man that loved his family and was always willing to help. He was a man of many sayings. When his kids were being extremely ornery, he would say, "You kids better stop that or I'm gonna knock a fart out of you so hard it will roll up your back like a window shade", lol.

He was a proud Korean Veteran that was proud to serve his country and until the end he still knew his dog tag numbers and loved the American flag.

As a father he taught his children to have respect, morals, manners, and values. Clarence was always a gentleman to his wife and loved to joke about how he met her on a bar stool (but left out the part that it was diner bar stool) and he would laugh every time.

He loved working with his hands in many ways. He worked at Goodyear, Tate Boys Tire, and Bartlesville Custom Cabinets.

He is survived by his three children, Nadine Solenberger and husband Alan of Bartlesville, Evelyn Baginski and husband Robin of Bartlesville, son Leroy Wilkinson of Bartlesville, his six grandchildren, Jennifer McNeill, Christopher Solenberger, Matthew Solenberger, Ashley Welchel, Michael Wilkinson, and Cherry Howell, eight great-grandchildren, and two great-great-grandchildren, two sisters, Irene Tayrien and Mary McKenzie.

His hobbies were fishing, wood working, and hunting. He loved camping with his family and decorating at Christmas time.
