He left this earthly body December 6, 2021 in Gorman, Texas on the wings of an eagle bound for another adventure and to join his family and friends. He married Burma Broom in Midlothian, Texas on January 20, 2001 and through the next 20 years they made many trips, adventures and memories. A gentle soul and sweetheart, he was my rock and soul mate. He cared deeply for his children/grandchildren and family. He worked at Lockheed Martin his entire career of 35 years and was most proud of his involvement with the space shuttle programs. After retirement from Lockheed he wanted to try country living having spent his entire life in the Metroplex so he moved to Gorman and enjoyed farm life with the chickens, goats and donkeys. He loved going to Vegas and playing Texas Hold'em Poker especially on the "Lockheed boy's" trips. And he was always ready for a family get together for a meal, homemade ice cream and visiting.
