PictureGary Kendrick Whitworth
Gary Kendrick Whitworth passed away Sunday, June 8, 2025, at seventy years old.  Gary was born March 8, 1955, in Fort Worth, Texas to Larry K. Whitworth and Giulia Paronesso. Gary loved music, having played the trombone, and drawing.  Gary was a natural artist, whether it was drawing cars, or making drawings for cards as gifts to his family and friends, or the many helicopter drawings he did in honor of his father who retired from Bell Helicopter.  Gary lived with his mother caring for her until her death at the age of 94.  Gary was diagnosed with diabetes at the age of four years old.  He had many fond memories of Dr. Shirley Sweeney, an endocrinologist from Dallas and spending time at Camp Sweeney that was opened as a residential camp for children with diabetes in 1950. He was one of the kindest individuals, always with a pleasant disposition and expressed his gratitude. 

He was preceded in death by his parents and a brother, Jimmy Whitworth. Survivors: sister, Marian Lea and husband, Harold and their daughters, Jemila Lea, Amina Lea and Jessica Lea; brother, Tony Whitworth and his daughter, Jamie Dulock and sons, John and Ryan Whitworth.

PictureAnn Nanette Driskill
February 7th, 1977 ~ March 29th, 2025

With heavy hearts and sincerest regrets we announce the passing of Ann Nannette Driskill.  Ann was born on February 7th, 1977, later adopted by parents Larry and Gayle Driskill. Ann was an intelligent and creative person, with a deep love for both music and writing. She spent many of her days learning to play her favorite songs on the piano, or reading and writing in pursuit of her love of poetry.  One of the greater joys and achievements of Ann’s life were her two daughters, Starla and Carissa. She beamed at the thought of her children's success and happiness, and missed no opportunity to show off their shine.  For being a self-described introvert, Ann was quite the social butterfly, having conversations with friends late into the night and sharing bits of her life with strangers who crossed her path. She never shied away from sharing her essence with the rest of the world. 

Ann passed away during a stay in the hospital on March 29th, 2025. She was surrounded by love, friends, family, and comfort. Ann was a bright and determined light who inspired those around her, never to be dimmed by the troubles she may have faced. She showed the people around her the importance of strength and resilience, especially through the heaviest of times. There wasn’t a thing that Ann was afraid of, a small vessel for such bravery. She lived each day with tenacity and persistence, in hope to build a life for herself and her daughters. Ann was a gentle mother, cherished sister, loving daughter, and devoted friend; she will be missed beyond what words could ever convey. Her spirit will carry on throughout those who remember her in love and in light.

Memorial Service will take place Thursday, April 3, 2025 from 3:00 - 6:00 pm at Parker Memorial Cemetery, 3900 William D Tate Ave., Grapevine, TX 76051, with viewing and family will welcome guests.
