BRYANT — Lehman Lanier “Whitt” Whittington,

age 85, went to be with the Lord on Friday, May 1, 2020. He was born October 14, 1934 to Nash and Hazel Hutcheson Whittington in Banks, Arkansas. Whitt’s church family will miss his delicious fried pies and his family will miss his chocolate pancakes. Whitt loved golf and loved his First Southern Baptist Church Family.

He is preceded in death by his parents, two brothers; Edward (Dewanna) and Robert Whittington. Left to cherish his memory is his wife of 51 years, Carolyn Hightower Whittington and children Jan Whittington, Andrew (Carla) Whittington, and Joseph Whittington. Two brothers; Loyd (Cherry) Whittington and Paul ( Beverly) Whittington. One sister Vivian Whittington Baker (Arnold), two grandchildren; Lily and Lucy Robinson and several nephews and nieces.

One of Whitt’s favorite memories was attending The Masters with his sons in 2010. A graveside service will be held May 6, 2020 at Forest Hills Memorial Park with Bro. Robby Tingle and Bro.
