Graveside services for Joetta Kane Meyer, 87, of Wayne will be held at 2 p.m. Tuesday, January 6, 2026 at the Norman I.O.O.F. Cemetery. Services will be under the direction of the Wilson-Little Funeral Home of Purcell.
Ms. Meyer passed from this life surrounded by loved ones on December 31, 2025.
Joetta was born in Stonewall, Oklahoma on November 24, 1938. She was the third of six children born to Theodore Kane and Beulah May (Williams) Kane.
The Kane family moved to Seminole when Joetta was a young girl. She was raised there and attended school at Pleasant Grove through the 8th grade. In 1952, Joetta married Gerald Dan Meyer in Van Buren, Arkansas. By the time she was 21 years of age, she had welcomed four children into the world.
In 1963, the Meyers planted their roots in Wayne, Oklahoma, and began their legacy farming while owning and managing a bull leasing company. She helped instill a love for animals to her children who continued to expand the family farm. Later in life, Joetta found her true passion being a proprietor in real estate. She purchased her very first rental property in 1990. Through hard work and determination, she obtained an extensive skill set and could fix almost anything—and if it was something she couldn’t fix, she knew just who to call. Working on houses was something she simply loved and enjoyed. This ultimately laid the foundation for the businesswoman she would later become.
In her free time, Joetta enjoyed listening to bluegrass music, tending to her flower garden, country dancing, and gambling. However, nothing was more important to Joetta than family. She proudly bore the titles of Mom, Sister, Aunt, and Granny. She loved attending family reunions, cooking for holiday gatherings, and spending time with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Joetta’s entire life was one encompassed by working hard, caring for others and having strong willed opinions and beliefs. She built and left a legacy behind by showing true grit and independence. She was simply one of a kind. Joetta will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her. 
She was preceded in death by her parents, Theodore and Beulah Kane; daughter, Joyce Davis and son-in-law, Larry Davis; sisters, Johnnie Sue Partain and Betty Young; brothers, James (Jim) Kane and Michael Kane.
Joetta is survived by her sons, Danny Meyer of Rosedale, Ted Meyer and wife, Terrye, of Wayne and John Meyer of Wayne; sister, Pat Herman of Durant; 11 grandchildren, McKenzie Gordon and husband, Chris, of Edmond, Cassie Hays and husband, Lendall, of Purcell, Chelsie Semkoff and husband, Jared, of Tuttle, Justin Meyer and wife, Tami, of Norman, Josh Meyer and wife, Ami, of Purcell, Jessica Rountree and husband, Scott, of Norman, Julie Taliaferro and husband, James, of Wayne, Crystal Meyer of Norman, Andrew Davis of Wayne, Kacy Terrel and husband, Travis, of Wayne and Carly Terrell and husband, Jordan, of Wayne; 22 great-grandchildren; five great-great-grandchildren and a host of other family and friends.
