Darlene Stephens Mabry, 90, beloved gardener, homemaker, and Grandmother, passes away — Lloyd, KY — On Saturday, August 9, 2025, Darlene peacefully departed this life, surrounded by the warmth and love of her devoted family. Born on March 20, 1935, in Greenup County to the late Wayne and Roxie Wolfe Stephens, Darlene made her home and her legacy right here in the region she cherished. She was preceded in death by her husband of many years, Billy Ray Mabry (1994), and her brothers-in law, Joe Fraley and Bob Browning. For generations, Darlene was the heart of every gathering—her kitchen the epicenter of comfort and connection. She delighted in tending her garden as much as she delighted in nurturing her family. She was known for Sunday dinners that lingered late into evening, and her house was always open—especially if the grandchildren were around. Her true joy came from laughter-filled afternoons with her grandbabies—Josh, Andrew Mabry—and later, watching Devin, Paul, Xavier, and Maddox grow. Those who will carry her memory forward include: Her son, Donnie Mabry, and his wife, Deanie of Lloyd, her daughter, Dianna Click, and her husband, Danny of Ashland, Her brother, Ralph Stephens, and his wife, Wilma of Greenup, Her sisters: Carol Fraley, Ricca Wells (and husband Bob), Linda Brown (and husband Allen), all of Lloyd, and Judith Browning of Russell. There was no small gesture too insignificant for Darlene—be it a home-baked treat at church or a caring word at a kitchen table. She embodied devotion, warmth, and the everyday magic of family life. Services: Funeral will be held at 1:00 PM on Tuesday, August 12, 2025, at Music Family Funeral Home with Pastor Ken Martin officiating, with visitation from 11:00 AM until service time.
