Wynona Driskell Obituary
Wynona Valines Driskell was born on February 2, 1934, in Blanchard, Oklahoma, to Schley and Gladys Brooks. She passed away peacefully surrounded by family on April 9, 2025. Wynona was preceded in death by her parents; her beloved husband, Bob Driskell; her daughter, Vicki Pollock; brothers: Joe Brooks and O.T. Brooks; and sister, Caroline Terrell. She is survived by her son, Joe Driskell and his wife Lea Ann; and grandchildren: Jeff Pollock and wife Amanda with children Ayden and Jordan, Lara Davis with children Lydia and Netty, Adam Driskell and wife Joyce with children Jade, Brianna, and Katlyn, and Matt Pollock and wife Ashley with children Channing, Dawson, and Ella.
A funeral service is planned for 2:00 p.m., Monday, April 14, at First Baptist Church Duncan with Bryan Pain officiating. Interment will follow in the Duncan Municipal Cemetery with Rick Brooks, Randy Brooks, Robin Brooks, Mack Brooks, Steve Terrell, and Marvin Terrell serving as pallbearers. Honorary pallbearer is Tom Flanagan.
Nona dedicated her life to her faith and community as a lifelong member of First Baptist Church. She worked with joy as the "popcorn lady" at Halliburton Credit Union, known for her warm smile and generosity towards others. Granny cheered her grandchildren on from the stands at their activities and whether it was a trip to the mountains, Disney, or the lake, she was always up for the adventure and never fell behind.
Granny enjoyed daily walks at the mall and cherished her time having coffee with friends. She was a competitive spirit, never backing down from an argument, and always stood firm in her beliefs, guided by her faith in the Bible. Everyone called her and knew her by the name "Granny."
Growing up on a farm in Blanchard instilled in Nona a deep appreciation for hard work and Oklahoma roots. She was an avid fan of all things OU and the OKC Thunder, bringing her enthusiasm to every game she attended or watched. Known for her love of a good game of pitch, Nona enjoyed friendly competition and camaraderie with friends and family alike.
Quick to offer comfort and wisdom, Nona was always ready with a Bible verse to inspire and uplift. Her life was a testament to her unwavering faith and commitment to serving others, leaving a legacy of kindness and compassion that will be treasured by all who knew her.
The family extends heartfelt thanks to the nurses and doctors who provided compassionate care and support to Nona during her final weeks. Special gratitude is also expressed to close family friends, Doris and Carla, for their friendship and dedicated care for Granny.
