Alberta Darlington

Alberta Darlington, 88, of Baker City, died at her home on Sunday, December 21, 2025..

Born Alberta Faye Hendrick in Baker's St. Elizabeth Hospital, "Bert" devoted her life to family, be it at home with husband Ernie Darlington, daughter Glinda and son Douglas, or at one of the many office and volunteer jobs she held over the years.

Preceded in death by parents Harve Hendrick, Arvesta Hendrick Rinehart and William "Bill" Rinehart, Bert also lost husband Ernest Ray Darlington and siblings Billy Hendrick, Gaynell Hendrick Flynn and twin brother Albert Hendrick.

Alberta is survived by children Glinda Darlington Fennell of Burley, Idaho, Douglas Darlington of Baker City; grandchildren Derek Fennell of Twin Falls, Idaho, and Sage Darlington of Baker City; and great grandchildren Bronson and Mattie Fennell of Twin Falls.
Bert was also fairy godmother to hundreds of Baker County babies she loved in her role as volunteer and then director of the Rachel Pregnancy Center in Baker City. Bert would approve of any donations to the Rachel Center in her memory.

Alberta requested her cremains to rest beside Ernie at Mt. Hope Cemetery and with her mother Arvesta at Hilltop Memorial Cemetery in Nyssa Oregon. A celebration of life for both Alberta and Ernie will take place in the spring.

God, their work here is done. Grant them blessed peace and joy in the hereafter.
