Darlene Collom Obituary

COLLOM, DARLENE M. of White Lake, passed away July 24, 2025 at 81 years of age. Loving mother of Timothy (Becky) Daugherty, Dennis (Sharon) Daugherty, Donna (John) Marcum, and Judy (the late Patrick) Sizemore; mother of bonus children, Irene (the late Norman) Graves, Connie (Craig) Engman, and the late David (Margo) Daugherty; grandma of Olivia, Emily, Shawn (Courtney), JD, Sean (Rockie), Amber (Ken), James, Megan, Frank, Kim, Nena, Richard, Tammy, David Lee, and Corey; great grandma of 19; sister of Laverne, Kenneth, Paul, and Barbara; preceded in death by her parents Francis and Marion Collom and her siblings Harold, Francis, Victor, and Norman. Darlene was a loving mother, grandmother, and sister who had an open door policy and the need to be surrounded by family. Her selfless nature allowed for her to lovingly care for others. She enjoyed many of the simpler things in life, playing cards; puzzles; crosswords; sewing; quilting; crocheting; and we can’t forget the dancing. Her devotion to her family was number one, followed by a very close second to her passion for fishing and she has all the poles and tackle to prove it. She will be forever loved and missed. Funeral service will be held Tuesday, July 29, 2025 at 12 PM at COATS FUNERAL HOME-WATERFORD. Burial follows at White Lake Cemetery, White Lake. Family will receive friends Tuesday 10 AM until time of service.  To post a tribute, visit www.CoatsFuneralHome.com.
