HELEN LaVERNE HALE RANDOLPH

Our Heavenly Father welcomed Helen LaVerne Hale Randolph into his loving 
arms on Friday, June 17, 2005.  She is celebrating now, as she was on her 
birth, August 4, 1923, when she was welcomed by Gladys Ivy McAdoo Hale and 
Ollie Webster Hale.

She grew up in Grady County and graduated from the Rush Springs High 
School.

She and Arthur Randolph were married 62 years at the time of his death on 
August 13, 2002.  LaVerne is also preceded in death by her mother in 1928; 
her father on June 15, 1982; and her stepmother, Lillie Hale, on November 
17, 1991.

Survivors include her daughter Loretta Randolph Wright and her husband 
Winfred of Oklahoma City, OK.  Two brothers:  Ollie Junior Hale of Rush 
Springs, OK and Archie Hale of Abilene, KS.  She is also survived by 
numerous nieces and nephews and a multitude of longtime friends, most of 
whom she met during the 55 years in the car business and antique 
collecting, which was her passion.  One of her greatest joys was giving to 
mothers With a Heart of Gold.

She was a member of the First Baptist Church in Chickasha.

Those of us [who] were blessed by knowing LaVerne, will miss her beautiful 
smile and her unforgettable distinctive laugh.  The family wishes to thank 
Jannette Steverson, Donita Martin and Della Green for their love and care 
for LaVerne.

In lieu of flowers any donation to the Gideon International, and/or, the 
American Diabetic Association, are greatly appreciated.

the Ferguson Funeral Home Chapel.

Interment will be in the Rush Springs Cemetery, under the direction of
