Darla Jean Endress
Shawnee, Oklahoma – January 3, 1965 – September 8, 2025
Darla Jean Endress, of Shawnee, passed away surrounded by her loving family.

Aaron, Easton and Kerry, Terrence and Sumer Wendt, Vina Treat, Kole Alderman and wife
Allyson, Jana Treat, Christy Treat, and Brian Peck, along with many more nieces, nephews,
cousins, and extended relatives who will carry her memory forward.
Darla had a gift for being the life of the party. She was known for her fun-loving spirit, her quick
wit, and the way she could make anyone feel welcome. Family meant everything to her, and she
was fiercely protective of her loved ones, especially her grandchildren, who were her pride and
joy. She loved gathering for holidays, birthdays, or simply a good visit, and she never missed the
chance to bring laughter to the room.
She enjoyed watching her favorite reality shows like The Bachelor and 90 Day Fiancé, and those
closest to her knew she loved relaxing with her cigarettes, her favorite music, and good
conversation. Darla was strong, bold, and unapologetically herself. She taught her family the
importance of loyalty, laughter, and standing by one another through everything life brings.
Her family will forever remember her warmth, humor, and her fierce love. Her presence will be
deeply missed but never forgotten.
