Obituary
Irene Deibert, of Compton, Arkansas, passed away Tuesday, November 21, 2017, at home at the age of 86.
She was born June 8, 1931 at Ponca, Arkansas to Walter and Alma (Mallonee) Parker.
Irene lived in this area most of her life and belonged to the Northern Cherokee tribe since 1985. She enjoyed gardening, canning, embroidery, quilting, making many "Hillbilly" quilts, and she also loved to be outdoors. She was proud of her Cherokee heritage and her Indian name meant "Berry Picker" and she was a "gatherer" and loved picking blackberries.
Irene was a great, one of a kind mother. She loved and cared for her family and always worked hard to provide for them. She loved life and was a like a magnet, as people were drawn to her. Conversations shared with her would always include her go-to phrase, "I reckon".
She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Don Deibert; a son, Clifford Beaver and two brothers, Clarence Parker and Cletus Parker.
Irene is survived by her son, Johnny Beaver and wife Bobbie; two daughters, Diane Cook and husband Ted and Kathy Cline and husband Troy; her daughter-in-law, Dema Beaver; two sisters, Faye Hale and Maxine Gibbons; six grandchildren, Bill, Latisha, Leslie, Spencer, Brant and Crystal; nine great grandchildren, Isaac, Lucas, Theodore, Austin, Matthew, Emily, Trenton, Alesha and Brayden; her special relatives and friends, Jerry Parker, Jessie Ford, Bessie and J.C. Ward, Shirley Harris, Tiffany Villines, Angie Youngblood, Russell Peacock and Linda and Kenny Clark; and a host of other relatives and friends who loved her and will miss her dearly.
Funeral services will be held Friday, November 24, 2017 at 2:00 PM at Crossroads Church in Stoverville (near Compton) with Kenny Clark and Bradley Clark officiating. Burial will follow at Crossroads Cemetery.
Pallbearers are Trenton Smith, Glen Parker, Bill Cook, Brant Beaver, John Robbins and Jessie Ford.
Honorary Pallbearers are Jerry Parker, Matthew Smith, J.C. and Bessie Ward, Spencer Cline, Brayden Anderson and Isaac and Lucas Fernando.
No visitation will be held.
Arrangements under the direction of Coffman Funeral Home of Harrison and on-line condolences may be left at www.coffmanfh.com .
