Eula Mae was born on June 20, 1927, in Kinta, OK to Vinnie and Allie (Groover) Norvell. She grew up in Kinta and graduated from Kinta High School. She married Arthur Wehunt on August 14,1950 in Kinta Ok, and they moved to Dumas in 1953. Eula Mae was a homemaker, she enjoyed her garden, and cooking for her family. Her family always wanted her to cook pork chops, cherry cobbler, and coconut cream pie.

Eula Mae was a devout Christian and faithfully served her Lord. She had attended First Assembly of God Church in Dumas for 72 years, where she was very active in all church activities up until the day she suffered a stroke in October. She was the Women's Ministries assistant coordinator for 37 years. She was in charge of the Tuesday morning quilting ministry. She sewed together thousands of quilt blocks to make quilts for missionaries. The Tuesday morning quilting ministry would tack and hem quilts. She would lay quilt blocks on her living room floor and crawl around pinning them together. You always had to be careful walking barefoot in her living room to avoid getting a straight pin in your foot.

Eula Mae was an awesome Grandma and Great Grandma, she loved spending time with all of them and would do anything to help them have a good time. When they were small, she sat in a rocking chair for hours and read to them. Her biggest goal was to see every member of her family saved, attending church, and preparing themselves for heaven.

Eula Mae was preceded in death by her parents, her husband Arthur, sisters Mavis Cooper, Mary Jo Kasiner, Maud Evett, Mildred Evett, Myrtle Whitehead. Brothers, Groover (Bud) Norvell, George Norvell, and Garland (Doc) Norvell.
