Delsa “Duck” Polk Willcutt, 89, of Atkins went to the Lord Saturday, April 16, 2011 at St. Mary’s Hospital. She was born September 28, 1921, the daughter of Sam Daniel Polk and Viana Hartwick Polk. She was the widow of the late Edd Willcutt of Atkins and attended the Church of Christ in Bells Chapel. She loved gardening and country-life. She had many stories of the good ol’ days that will be lost through time. She loved her family and friends and will be sorely missed by all. Her dad, Sam, gave her the nickname of “Duck” when she was 2 years old. When he said that she waddled like a duck when she walked, it stuck, and all her family and friends knew her by that name. Duck was preceded in death by her parents; her husband; three brothers, Sammy Polk, Nelse Polk and Manuel Gooden; two sisters, Elsie Willcutt and Elvie McBride; a son, William Earl Willcutt; two grandsons, Darrell Wayne Willcutt and Richard Lee Willcutt; a granddaughter, Deborah Kaye Hendrix; and a daughter-in-law, Ola Willcutt.
