Read More	Ardis Darlene Arnold, originally from Wayne County, passed away while in her daughters home in Prairie City, Iowa on February 2, 2021. Private family graveside services will be held at Bethel Chapel Cemetery. Memorials may be given to the Jasper County Elderly Nutrition or Unity Point Hospice. Ardis, the daughter of Clint and Grace (Keen) Marker, was born on November 5, 1920 in Lucas County, Iowa. Ardis' mother died when she herself was only 15 years old. Therefore, she helped raise her much younger sister, Helen. Ardis graduated from Norwood High School, where she had played basketball. Two of her teachers, Irene and Virgil Starry, later taught in Allerton school. Ardis was united in marriage to Dean Arnold on May 19, 1938. They lived in Clark County for five years, then they moved to Wayne County, south of Allerton. There Dean farmed and they raised four children, Lois, Dewey, Diane and Steven. Ardis being a farm wife and mother worked very hard. There were always three meals a day along with gardening, canning, raising chickens, etc. It was nothing for her if an unexpected company showed up on Sunday for dinner. She would go out and catch a chicken, kill him, dress him and make the best fried chicken ever. Ardis was a country girl at heart and loved the simple things of Life. She was also a very caring and loving mother. She belonged to the "Friendly Farmers Club", a group of neighbors who got together to visit and do fun things. Ardis worked in Chariton at Gross Galesburg Sewing Factory making coveralls for nine years. In 1978, Dean and Ardis moved from the farm into Clio. Ardis worked at The WIndmill and Ruby's Restaurant in Humeston for 20 years. Dean and Ardis had celebrated 70 years of marriage. After Dean's death, Ardis remained in Clio for a few years. Ardis never slowed down until her 99th year - not even a broken hip at age 89 could slow her down. One of the things Ardis enjoyed most was all the many trips to Branson, Missouri with her daughters. She loved country music and all the shows. She also was fond of the Saturday evening Lawrence Welk show on TV. Later she moved to Fort Des Moines Senior Housing where she made many new friends and enjoyed the activities. While living with daughter Diane, they delivered meals five days a week to the elderly. In their spare time they went to the ballpark or the gym to walk. Ardis was preceded in death by her parents, Clint and Grace Marker; sister, Helen Letton; brothers, Ralph, Don and Herbert Marker; husband, Lester Dean; and her only granddaughter, Angela Dittmer Tate. Ardis is survived by her daughters, Lois (Tom) and Diane; her sons, Dewey (Cheryl) and Steven (Rita); eight grandchildren and fourteen great-grandchildren.
