Hugh Pascal Allison II, 74, passed away at his home in San Angelo, Texas on November 27, 2015, surrounded by loving family members. He was born on April 2, 1941 in San Angelo. The first born to Lea Pascal and Helen Claire Berry Allison, also a descendant of George Sutton and Margaret Thornhill Allison who settled their homestead ranch in Sutton County in 1885.
Pascal graduated from the Texas Military Institute in San Antonio, TX and attended the University of Texas in Austin. A gentleman honoring his ranch heritage, Pascal spent his entire life ranching in Sutton, Pecos and Concho County. He also enjoyed a successful career in real estate sales with Guy Chipman in San Antonio. Too late in his life, as he often said, he found his 3rd career in medical services as a member and instructor of Sutton County EMS. He took immense pride in the students he was instrumental in certifying in Emergency Services and took gratification in following their progress.
Pascal married Dorothy Jean Ryon in 1967 and they were happily married for 47 years residing in San Angelo, Ballinger, San Antonio and Sonora.
Pascal was a member of the Texas Sheep and Goat Raisers Association and a member/past President of the Sutton County Game Dinner Association. He was well known all over Sutton County for his green thumb and his beautiful greenhouse grown orchids and bougainvillea's. A man of sharp wit, Pascal always had a story to tell and a joke to share, he had us smiling to the end. Pascal taught us about dying, but most importantly about living life to the fullest. His brief and courageous battle with cancer was hard fought and he succumbed with dignity. He died as he lived, a gentleman.
Pascal was preceded in death by his parents, Lea and Helen Claire Allison and wife Dorothy Jean Allison.
Pascal is survived by his son Scott Allison and fiancée Claire Drain, daughter Sabrina and husband Ryan Haecker, all of San Angelo, sister Susan and husband Buck Bloodworth of Sonora, sister Sarah and husband Robert Post of San Angelo, his grandchildren Fallon Allison, Elisha "Cinco" H. Howard V, Henry Pascal Howard all of San Angelo and Nia Allison of Burnet, TX, his nieces Rachel Randall of Hollis, OK, Allison Bright and Ashley Snook both of San Angelo.
