Huberta was born Sept. 8, 1937, in Fallon, to Hubert and Eulah Van Winkle McKinnon. She was a homemaker who not only took care of her family, but many others. She was always willing to help anyone in need. She loved to host holiday meals for widows, at times cooking for as many as 100 people. She loved to cook and was a wonderful cook; she rarely ever measured anything.
Huberta enjoyed playing card games, dominoes and most any kind of games, especially with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren; she would play for hours. Her family was the center of her life; her pride and joy. She also loved to travel.
She was preceded in death by her parents; sister Emily Barganier; and half-brother Tolbert McKinnon.

Duke; loving children: daughter Debrah Harman and husband Jim, of Dallas, their daughter, Jenni and husband Curtis, and children, William, Daniel and Andrew, of Denton, MD; son John, of Dallas, and daughter Amy, of Charleston, SC; daughter Dinah Robnett and husband Edward, of Tulsa, OK, their son Nathan and wife Nicki, and children, Ace and Oakley, of Grand Cayman Islands; daughter Rebecca, of Tulsa, OK, son Matthew, of Tulsa, OK, and son John Russel and wife Summer, of Ft.
