Wanda Berniece McClary Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Wanda Berniece (Pugh) McClary, 82, of Kinta, passed away Wednesday, November 15, 2017 at Haskell County Hospital in Stigler. She was born July 8, 1935 at Kinta to Luther and Vada (Cross) Pugh. Wanda grew up on a farm in the Fish Creek area where she loved gardening, raising cattle, quilting, crocheting and simply living the country life. She graduated from Kinta High School where later she worked in the cafeteria for many years until her retirement in 1995. After retirement she loved working in her yard and talking to her cats. She loved all her cats but she had a favorite black one that she worried about even while in the hospital. A fallen leaf in her yard didn’t have a chance! She would rake leaves all winter until there were no more. Raking her leaves or talking to her cats is where you would find her until her stroke in 2015. She never lost the desire to get those leaves out of her yard! She was a member of the First Christian Church in Kinta. She will certainly be missed. Her work ethic, her strong will to make it no matter what. What a testimony to her generation. Wanda is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, Dennis and Lauri McClary of Tulsa; two grandchildren, Jason and Kaitlyn McClary; numerous nieces, nephews, and some special friends in her life, Bill and Della Collins, Loretta Bowers, and Allen Lovell Wanda is preceded in death by her parents, Luther and Vada Pugh; her two brothers, Kenneth Pugh and Lowell “Sonnyboy” Pugh.
