Mary Whipple was a longtime advisor of the Hutch Bunch 4-H Club, where she encouraged the raising of rabbits and had a special love for Angoras.

She fostered a passion for 4-H in her children and grandchildren, and maybe one day her great-grandchildren as well.

Even after retiring as an advisor, Mary and her husband continued to support local youth each year at the livestock auction. Over the years, she proudly purchased market rabbits, chickens, turkeys, and even a hog. Mary will be deeply missed at rabbit shows, farmers markets, and the fair.

Her legacy will live on through the many young people she encouraged and supported throughout the 4-H program and the livestock auction. Above all, Mary leaves behind a family she loved very much.

Celebrate the life of Mary K. Whipple and join others in sharing memories, stories, and condolences.
