Elaine White

Merion "Elaine" White was born on December 22, 1949, in Duncan, Oklahoma, and was the cherished daughter of Marion and Carrie (Layn) Cobb. She passed away peacefully surrounded by her family on Sunday, November 30, 2025, at the age of 75.

The family will receive visitors from 5:00-7:00 P.M., Wednesday, December 3, at Whitt Funeral Home.

On August 16, 1968, Elaine married the love of her life, Roger "Yankee" White, in Wichita Falls, Texas. Together they shared more than five decades of marriage until his passing earlier this year. Their union was blessed with two daughters, Dawn and April, whom they raised with devotion and love.

Elaine dedicated much of her career to working as a florist, where her creativity and eye for beauty touched countless lives. Beyond her work, she found her greatest joy in spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, who were the light of her life. She treasured her friendships and embraced opportunities to travel, creating memories that will be cherished by all who knew her.
