Velva Jean Ezell, 97 years old, passed away peacefully on Thursday, May 9, 2024 at the Siloam Springs Nursing and Rehab.
Velva was born November 11, 1926 to Floy Howerton and Thelma Keith. On June 8, 1946, she married her best friend, Richard Leon Ezell. They would share many loving memories together until his passing in 2004. Living to be 97 years old, Velva had lived what most would consider a full and meaningful life. She was blessed with a wonderful family and will be missed dearly by them.
To honor Velva's wishes, the family will gather privately at a later date to lay her to rest beside her husband at the Kansas Cemetery in Kansas, Oklahoma.
The cremation arrangements were entrusted to Backstrom-Pyeatte Funeral Home of Siloam Springs, Arkansas. To sign the online guestbook, please visit www.backstrom-pyeatte.com.
