Clo Ann Daniels, 93, of El Dorado, Arkansas passed away on June 20, 2026.
She was born on October 27, 1932, in Wabbaseka, Arkansas to Harvey and Eula Benson.
She was a devoted wife, loving mother, and faithful friend whose greatest joy was caring for those she loved. She treasured every moment spent with her husband of 72 years, whether they were traveling in search of unique antiques to add to their cherished collections, tending their garden, tackling home projects together, or maintaining and preparing their land for hunting season. Their partnership was built on love, laughter, and a shared enjoyment of life's simple moments.
She treasured the friendships she built through years of playing bridge and with her beloved Sunday School class at church. Her gift of hospitality was evident in the many bridal showers and celebrations she thoughtfully hosted over the years. She lived a life marked by quiet generosity, steadfast faith, and selfless service, leaving those around her feeling cared for, encouraged, and deeply loved. Her legacy is one of unwavering devotion to God, her family, and her friends, and she will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
She is preceded in death by her parents; 3 brothers, Ben Benson, Lyde Benson, Olan Benson; two sisters, Dean McClendon and Nell Mow; one grandchild, Ainsley Victoria.
She is survived by her husband, Charles; four children, Diane, Dwayne, Kristi and Leigh; grandchildren, Justin, Tyler, Joey, Sarah, Jacob, Julia, Sam and Charlotte; and great grandchildren, Aiden, Rose and James.
Our family extends our deepest and most heartfelt gratitude to the compassionate nurses and CNAs of LifeTouch El Dorado for the exceptional care, kindness, and dignity they provided.
We are forever grateful for the incredible love and devotion shown by her caregivers—Charlene, Glenda, Kathy B., Kathy M., Mary, Shirley, Amanda, Brenda, and Lisha. Their gentle hands, caring hearts, and unwavering support brought comfort not only to her, but to our entire family. We will always cherish the difference they made in her life and ours.
Graveside service will be held at 11:00 AM on Monday, June 29, 2026, at Arlington Memorial Park under the direction of Young's Funeral Directors.
