Rose (Inman) Conner was born on January 13, 1924, at home near Belva, Oklahoma, and passed away at the Fairview Regional Hospital on August 24, 2018. She grew up and attended school in Cheyenne Valley, northwest of Fairview, where she married Lynn Conner on December 9, 1943. She was a farm wife, loving mother and grandmother, quilter, seamstress and gardener. In 1953 they moved to California's San Joaquin Valley and returned to Oklahoma in 1960. Throughout her life she enjoyed having people come visit and always had an open door. She began sewing at a very young age and made clothes for her brothers and sister when she lived at home and later made all of her daughter's clothes for many years. In later years she would insist on giving all her visitors a crocheted towel, dish scratcher, or some other item she had made. She was an accomplished quilter and had quilted over 100 quilts and pieced many more quilt tops. She attended the First United Methodist Church in Fairview, Oklahoma and was a member of the Fairview Common Threads Quilt Guild and the Sod House Quilting group.
She was preceded in death by her husband Lynn Conner; her parents, Sam and Ester (Hoffman) Inman; three brothers, Ray, Billy and Rolas; two sisters, Marjorie Stewart and Lula Judd.
She is survived by two daughters, Linda Linn and husband Lindal and Louciel Davis and husband Gary; six grandchildren, Sherry Roden, Sharleen Dupee, Russell Linn, Jason Davis, Tracie Longest and Chad Davis; five great-grandchildren, Dylan Martin, Zachery Roden, Jenna Dupee, Madyson Dupee and Lux Linn; eleven nieces and nephews and many friends.
