of Midway, AR
March 8, 1972 - October 30, 2024
Mrs. Tenaya Whitman, 52, of Midway, Arkansas passed away Wednesday, October 30, 2024, in Mountain Home, Arkansas. She was born on March 8, 1972, in San Bernardino, California to Susan Howie. She married Gerald Whitman in 1990. She was a one-of-a-kind free spirit with the heart of a child who didn't like to be tied down. Most of all, though she was a loving wife, mother of eight, and grandmother of many more who kept her very busy, this didn't stop her from other endeavors. She could do anything she put her mind to, from her singing and art projects to her craft and repurposing projects. She did it all with passion and zeal.
Tenaya is survived by her husband; five sons: Alan, Eric, Adam, Cory, and Sean; three daughters: Misty, Amanda, and Angela; 21 grandchildren; two brothers: Tommy and Jerry, and two sisters: Misty and Fancie. She was preceded in death by her mother.

To my Nina, you will be so missed ! You definitely left a print on our lives that will never be forgotten. One specific memory of you always makes me smile when I see dandelions ! When me, my mom & sisters were in Arkansas you were very hands on spending time with us& took us to some flower fields & were teaching us to make wishes by blowing dandelions, well I couldn’t blow them lol so you encouraged me that those with asthma can get multiple chances & it still works ! That’s a highlight of the spirit you carried, you always seen the best in everything and cared deeply about everyone around you. Love you so much! Heaven is so lucky to have gained such a beautiful angel.

You were so loved and you were the best aunt. I loved when you used to draw for us your creativity made every moment so fun and special. I will always remember in the 5th grade when you spent time with me thinking of some ideas of a project I had to create for school and with your talent you brought our idea to life and we completed the project togetherYou will be deeply missed, and your memory will always be cherished
Love Elyssa, your niece
