Dwain Charles Brinley, 77, of Enid, Oklahoma, went to his eternal home on Wednesday, October 6, 2021. Dwain was born on May 21, 1944, in Woodward, OK, to Kenneth and Faye Brinley.
He graduated from Garber High School in 1962. After graduating from OSU-Okmulgee, he moved to Long Beach, California, and met Betty Cashion. They married on June 7, 1969, and in 1972 moved to Enid.
Retiring after 34 years with Southwestern Bell, Dwain and Betty owned/operated The Arbors Assisted Living Center for 15 years.
Dwain loved "God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit," his son "Big Guy," and daughter "Punkin." Other loves included his '55 Chevy Bel Aire, '67 Mustang Fastback, Honda Gold Wing, squeezing babies' cheeks, college football, his Mother's oatmeal raisin cookies, and black licorice. He was a grand story-teller, and his favorite Bible verse was Phillippians 4:6.
Dwain is survived by his children: son Jason Brinley and daughter-in-law Susan of Enid, Oklahoma, daughter Jennifer Gordon and son-in-law Kevin, of Las Vegas, Nevada; 6 grandchildren, Mason, Aspen and Hanna Brinley, and Myah, Eli and Ethan Gordon.
