Iris Silverhorn, 89, of Anadarko, Ok passed away peacefully with her loved ones by her side on April 5, 2026.
Iris was born May 23, 1936 in Stecker, Ok as a twin and one of 11 children to Clara Tsalote and James Silverhorn. Iris was an enrolled member of the Kiowa Tribe and fluent in Kiowa. She was the last living full blooded Kiowa twin. She loved singing and listening to Kiowa Hymns. She grew up in a traditional Kiowa home and loved and respected the Kiowa ways. Iris was a homemaker who spent most of her life taking care of others and being a motherly figure to many who loved and appreciated her for it. Her energy, light and unique personality will never be forgotten. Iris had an infectious laugh that we all loved and will deeply miss. She was a beloved daughter, sister, mother, aunt, grandmother and friend who touched the lives of anyone who had the privilege to know her. Iris loved spending time with her daughter, grandkids and great grandkids. She loved her strong black coffee, watching classic movies, and her time at Brandon's where she made many friends throughout her life. A beautiful woman inside and out who taught us all that laughter is the best medicine.
