Darrell Shipman

Darrell Shipman

Darrell was an inspiration to all who knew him later in life as a example of how God’s love and forgiveness can lift and fill a person with goodness and compassion.

Darrell Shipman, 73, of Sulphur, Oklahoma, died on May 16, 2025.

He was born in Hobbs, New Mexico in 1951 to GW and Doris Shipman. Darrell attended Hobbs High School before serving with the U.S. Marines. A service for which he was always proud.
