Stella J. Hedman, age 95, passed away on Monday, March 26,
2017, at Jane Phillips Medical Center in Bartlesville,
Oklahoma. Our mother, Stella, went home to sing and dance at
the feet of her Jesus.
Stella Josephine Newton was born on October 18, 1921 in
Pocahontas, Arkansas. She was the daughter of John Newton
and Emily (Hill) Newton. She was raised in Arkansas until
she reached her teens and she and her brother traveled by
railroad to Oklahoma.
After receiving her formal education, Stella married Carl J.
Hedman on May 8, 1938 in Nowata, Oklahoma. She and her
husband lived in Bartlesville for many years and while in
their '50s, they moved to Washington state. In Washington,
Stella became employed with Simplot Cannery, Ferndale,
Washington as an assembly line technician where she worked
for approximately 15 years while raising her family.
Stella was a wonderful inspiration to all that she met. She
was blessed with the gift of "Servitude". She served all of
the churches that she attended over the years with love and
grace. She taught Sunday School, taught Missionettes and
faithfully filled communion cups.
Stella and Carl raised 7 rambunctious and grateful children

(Brenda) Hedman of Nowata, Oklahoma, LeAnna J. (Neil)
Whistler of Houston, Texas; and Linda Peters of
