FAYETTEVILLE — Enid Lorraine (Stoops) Mueller, of Fayetteville, Ark., died Oct. 9, 2018. She celebrated her 100th birthday at home, in July, with a gathering of family members from across the U.S. Born July 14, 1918, in Sawyer, Kan., to John & Elizabeth (Peachey) Stoops, Enid was predeceased by her husband Clyde, in 2010.

She is survived by her eight children: Jan and John Neumuth, Andover, Conn.; Leigh and John Buckmaster, Siloam Springs, Ark.; Merrill and Susan Mueller, Paradise, Calif.; Benjamin and Laura Mueller, Edgerton, Kan.; Elizabeth and James Sledge, Farmington, Ark.; Kristina Mueller, Greenwood, Ark.; Marilyn Mueller, Fayetteville, Ark.; Mark and Brenda Mueller, Modesto, Calif.

Enid graduated from Sawyer High School in 1936, and Kansas State University at Manhattan, Kan., in 1940. She & Clyde were married in Ithica, N.Y., in 1940, where he was getting his PhD at Cornell University. After her husband joined the Army during WWII, Enid & Jan would visit him at various bases throughout the U.S. Enid and Clyde and a growing family lived in New York, Kansas, Connecticut, and California, finally settling in Fayetteville, Ark., in 1969.

Reading her Bible daily was a loved activity of Enid's, as was the old art of letter writing. She was a great cook, passing Kansas recipes down to her family. Needlework and knitting were favorite hobbies, and in later years as she slowed down, she enjoyed watching & identifying birds from her window.

A private graveside service was held on Friday, Oct. 12, 2018, at Mt. Comfort Cemetery in Fayetteville under the direction of Moore's Funeral Chapel.
