We mourn the loss of Anita Carrol Hite, 74, passed away on Friday, December 27, 2024.

Anita was born on Thursday, October 26, 1950 in Yellville, Arkansas to Hershel and Murcil (Plumlee) Payne.

Anita was united in marriage to Ronald Dale Hite on June 15, 1979. They were married for 43 years until Ronald's passing in 2022.

Anita devoted 20 years at Beech Aircraft before having to medically retire.

Anita is survived by a host of family and friends who miss her dearly. Her generosity, unwavering friendship, and kindness will forever be remembered. A true friend, always in our hearts.
