Theda (Cobb) Kissel, 94 years, passed away Tuesday, July 18, 2017, in Calera, OK.
Theda was born May 20, 1923, in Antlers, OK, to David L. Cobb and Sarah (Elliston) Cobb. She graduated from Blue High School and attended Southeastern State College.

After retirement, she joined the “Pink Ladies” at MCSO Auxiliary, where she worked for many years and enjoyed her time interacting with patients and families in the gift shop. Theda was extremely devoted to her faith, and was an active member of New Hope Church of the Nazarene until her illness prevented her from further attendance.
