of Hot Springs National Park, AR

January 14, 1936 - March 29, 2021

Earla Stinson, 85, of Hot Springs entered her heavenly home on March 29, 2021. She was born on January 14, 1936, in Damascus, Arkansas to the late Robert Earl Winfrey and Jetta Mae Hensley Winfrey.

Earla was a hairdresser and owner of Earla's Beauty Shop in Little Rock for 50 years before retiring in 2006. She enjoyed country and gospel music, playing the piano, ballroom dancing, and square dancing. Most of all, she loved the adventure of traveling the country. Upon moving to Hot Springs, Earla volunteered at National Park Hospital and Meals on Wheels. As an active member of her church, Earla's life was greatly enriched when she met her beloved fiance, Lloyd Chapman. They had many fun times watching their grandchildren and great grandchildren play sports and attending their activities and graduations. They continued their travel adventures together on the backroads of Arkansas and to various parts of Texas to see family. She loved nature and God's creation and was always grateful for the opportunity she and Lloyd had to experience the beauty of the countryside. Earla and her family were deeply saddened when Lloyd passed away in the fall of last year. We all loved him dearly and remember him fondly.

The greatest source of joy in Earla's life were her children and her beautiful grandchildren and great grandchildren.
