Mr. Derrell Darwood Dillion

April 6, 1943 - February 20, 2021

Derrell Darwood Dillion, 77, of DeWitt passed away on February 20, 2021. Derrell was born April 6, 1943 in DeWitt to Woodrow and Lorene Dillion. He was a member of the DeWitt Jaycees, the Arkansas County Fair Board, and proudly served as a member of the Army National Guard for nine years. He was an avid NASCAR fan. If he wasn’t at home watching a NASCAR race or his favorite westerns, you could find him at the coffee shop drinking a cup of coffee with his closest friends. Throughout his life, Derrell took on many roles including that of “DD” to his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He was dearly loved by his family and will be greatly missed. Derrell is preceded in death by his parents, Woodrow and Lorene Dillion; and his brothers, Edwin and Jerry Dillion. He is survived by his wife of 56 years, Shirley Dillion; his son, Bradley (Stacy) Dillion of DeWitt; two grandchildren, Collin McFerrin and Drew Kirkpatrick; two great-grandchildren, Jon Collin and Jackson McFerrin; sister-in-law, Debbie Dillion; nieces, Jennifer Hendon, and Amy Turner; and Nephew, Chase Dillion.
