Henri Alfred ten Brink (Hal) was the most loved man by all his immense posse of friends and admirers who surrounded him every day at organized and orchestrated lunch events throughout Austin and weekend gatherings at the Guadalupe River house. He was generous and unselfish to all who knew him. He was the beloved husband of 47 years to Dr. Barbara Lee Rieck ten Brink and advised her with his wisdom and kind counsel enjoying and encouraging her many projects. He was devoted to his son, Samuel Lane ten Brink and daughter-in-law, Samantha Jane ten Brink, and granddaughters Marion (4) and Madeline (1). With Sam, Hal shared every leisure moment serving as coach or assistant coach in every youth sport. Hal instilled in Sam a passion for automobiles especially the 1973 white Buick Centurion convertible which Sam drove as a one-year old sitting on his daddy’s lap; the same car that Hal drove to carry Sam and Samantha away at their wedding.

Hal was a respected lawyer and public servant of 35 years to the State of Texas beginning in San Antonio at the Texas Attorney General’s Office as an Assistant Attorney General and Regional Chief; then as an Assistant Attorney General in Austin where he investigated and prosecuted consumer litigation throughout Texas. He moved to the Texas Department of Transportation Motor Vehicle Division and served as Assistant Director and Hearing Examiner in cases involving dealer sales points and disputes between dealers and manufacturers. Hal was the primary author of the Motor Vehicle Board’s Advertising Rules and Texas’ Lemon Law. Additional State work included the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation where he prosecuted 24 different licensing statutes in administrative hearings and was the original author of the Criminal Convictions Guidelines adopted by the Commission, Texas Residential Construction Commission, and the Texas Board of Chiropractic Examiners.

Hal opened a private practice in 1994 through 2002. He returned to the State and retired in 2013.

Hal was a Life Fellow of the Texas Bar Foundation.

His many philanthropic pursuits included serving on the boards of the Public Employees Credit Union for 30 years and Bryker Woods Neighborhood Association, serving as an election official, and providing pro-bono counsel to veterans through the Austin Bar Association.

Hal was born December 23, 1950 in Houston, Texas to Dr. Karl Cornelius ten Brink and Doris Moellenberndt ten Brink. The family transferred to New York during Hal’s high school years where he honed his talent for snow skiing. He returned every summer to be with his Texas friends and grandmothers and to attend Camp Longhorn where he learned to love sailing. He attended the University of Texas at Austin and St. Mary’s Law School in San Antonio. Hal is also survived by his sister, Charlotte ten Brink, brother-in-law, Rolf Laub, and niece, Emma Laub. We are eternally grateful to his long-term and vigilant care-provider Myriam Ruiz Santana.

A Celebration of Hal’s life will be at 12:00 P.M., Saturday December 2, 2023, at St. Francis by The Lake Episcopal Church, 121 Spring Mountain Dr, Canyon Lake, TX 78133.

Her Journey's Just Begun

 

Don't think of her as gone away-

Her journey has just begun

Life holds many facets

The Earth is only one

Just think of her as resting

from the sorrow and the tears

In a place of warmth and comfort

where there are no days or years

Think how she must be wishing

That we could know today

How nothing but our sadness

Can really pass away

And think of her as living

In the hearts of

those she touched

For nothing loved

is ever lost-

And she was

loved so much

Chaplain (Colonel) Lewis G. Burnett, 92 years old, passed away peacefully at his home on November 21, 2023 in San Angelo, Texas.

Lew was born on August 3, 1931 in McCamey, Texas, to James and Olive Ruth Burnett. He was ordained as a minister in Iraan, Texas in 1952. Two years later, he graduated from Hardin-Simmons with a Bachelor of Science degree. In 1962, he graduated from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary with a Bachelor of Divinity. Following his time at Southwestern, he was endorsed as a chaplain in the United States Army. He attended New York Theological Seminary in 1971 where he received the degree of Master of Sacred Theology. During this time, Lew faithfully served his country in both the Vietnam (1965-66) and Korean (1981-83) Wars. Over the years, he accrued numerous accolades and awards, including an 82nd Airborne Division award (where he also received a Master Parachutist badge for completing over 100 jumps), two Legion of Merit awards, an 11th U.S. Calvary award, and a U.S Army Garrison Yongsan & Area III Certificate of Appreciation.

At the young age of 16, Lew knew he was called into ministry. This would be the beginning of a life-long commitment to serving the Lord and those around him. Lew met his first love, Pat, as a young teenager and later married her in 1950. Together, they had 3 daughters; Linda, Laura, and Beverly. He spent his early adult life devoted to raising his children, receiving his education, and serving in the Army as a chaplain. He retired in 1985 after serving 30 years in the Army. Upon retiring, he began his 14 years of work with the Home Mission Board where he became the director of military chaplaincy, and the elected chairperson of the National Conference on Ministry to the Armed Forces. In 1999, he married his second love, Diane Burnett. Lew spent his retired years committed to serving his family, friends, and his community. To honor his effort and devotion to his community, he was inducted into the Concho Valley Senior Hall of Fame, and awarded the Senior Corps Community Impact Governor’s Volunteer Award. Lew often spent his extra time watching his grandchildren’s sports and extracurricular activities, traveling with his wife, and playing domino or card games. He also enjoyed movie dates with his wife and having brunch at their favorite local spots. Lew sincerely loved his family and was delighted at every opportunity to support and lend a helping hand. His care and faithfulness to the Lord and the ones he loved will leave an everlasting impression. Lew was a wonderful, God-fearing pastor, leader, husband, father, soldier, and friend whose warmth and joyfulness set him apart as one who was completely devoted to the care of others. His loving and fruitful spirit touched the hearts and lives of everyone he encountered. He was one who left behind an indelible mark on every person and place he touched.

And as Lew would say before anyone left his home, “I Love you! You be careful out there!”

Lew is preceded in death by his father, James Odis Burnett; mother, Olive Ruth Burnett; brothers, James Odis Jr. Burnett, Perry Burnett, and Johnny Burnett; sister, Elizabeth Jane Rohrer; sister-in-law, Pansy Bonsworth; daughters, Laura Burnett and Beverly Bowden; and late wife, Patsy Pauline Burnett of 48 years.

Lew is survived by his wife, Diane R. Burnett of 24 years; daughter, Linda (Carl) Thomas; bonus children, Mike (Tina) Yono, Doug (Maria) Yono, and Janine McIntyre; son-in-law, Greg McIntyre; 12 grandchildren, and 11 great-grandchildren.

The family would like to thank the VA, the many visiting angels Lew had over the years, Shannon Home Health, and their neighbor, Greg Costa, for their dedication in helping Lew in the final years of his life. They would also like to thank Southland Baptist Church, Pastor Chris Curran, and countless members of the church for praying over and pouring into Lew throughout his life as a member there.

The public viewing will be held from 5-7pm on Wednesday, November 29th at Harper Funeral Home in San Angelo, Texas. The funeral service will held at 10:00am on Thursday, November 30th at Southland Baptist Church in San Angelo, Texas.

Carolyn Hye Becknell Weatherby danced into Heaven surrounded by family, music, and prayer on November 19, 2023, following a brief illness complicated by dementia. She was born in San Angelo, Texas on April 23, 1941, to Marjorie Ritter and Howard Stacy Becknell. Carolyn was the youngest of three children and grew up in several small towns across West Texas.

Carolyn attended the Reagan County schools and in fifth grade met the love of her life, Theron Karman Weatherby. At Reagan County High School, she played basketball and volleyball on state-advancing teams, was a cheerleader, Student Council officer, Glee Club member, FHA member, Owl’s Hoot Staff member, was voted Junior Class Favorite and Basketball Sweetheart, and was crowned Mrs. RCHS for the class of 1959 alongside her long-time boyfriend. Her RCHS friends were extremely dear to Carolyn, and the group remained very close until her last day.

In January of 1959 (their senior year) Carolyn and Karman went to a “basketball tournament” but secretly married in Ciudad Acuña, Mexico. They completed their senior year with no one the wiser. After graduation, the couple left Big Lake to start their new life. While Karman studied, Carolyn worked and provided for their growing family: Timothy Carr, Jay Keith, Amy Camille, and Kristin Ann, encompassing what will forever be known as “TJAK”.

Carolyn worked in the UT Tower while she and Karman lived in Austin. Carolyn and the kids moved back to Big Lake to be close to family when Karman went to Vietnam. There she worked for O.W. Parker. They returned to Dallas where she honed her skills as a fundraiser, cake decorator, room mother, PTA member extraordinaire and mom. In 1974 they moved to San Angelo. To support her husband’s new medical practice, Carolyn not only worked in the front office, but she also served as nurse, cleaning woman, and business manager. Over the years, she managed multiple apartment complexes and rented and sold properties. All of this she did while being a pillar in the lives of her husband and four busy children, only occasionally forgetting to pick up Kristin from school.

Carolyn’s kitchen table was always open. She spent many late nights listening, not always agreeing with, but always supporting whoever ended up there - her friends, her children’s friends, and visitors from near and far. The invitation never expired or excluded. Carolyn welcomed people for hours or months into her home, but that famous hospitality was never extended to cats.

With the birth of her first grandchild, Carolyn transformed into her favorite role, that of Mimi. This role grew to embrace 12 grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. The house that was bought to downsize was added onto, all for the grandkids. As Mimi, she made sure the pool was ready, the playroom was always stocked with entertainment, the drink fridge was full, and whatever a grandchild wanted to eat magically appeared in the kitchen. If you needed a reminder to be nice or play fair, and the “look” did not do the trick, the wooden spoon sat by the stove.

Carolyn enjoyed spending her “free” time with Shannon Auxiliary “Pink Ladies”, decorating the Methodist Church Parsonage and Superintendent’s home, planning various events including multiple proms, Tri-Hi-Y formals, and the Brown Bag Ball. She literally danced across the state with her son Jay’s band, Texas Gold, and was the band’s booking agent, transport, and, of course, Mom. She would never turn down a trip to play slots in Hobbs, Shreveport, Vegas or anywhere else and always managed to hit a jackpot. Carolyn’s heart was full when driving around “The Place” with family. She always saw a “huge buck” and once harvested one. Her most-loved times were family gatherings with everybody talking, laughing, and eating, enjoying time together with lots of joy.

Carolyn lived by the Golden Rule and taught her children both by example and repetition. She was the Mom everyone wished they had and a Mimi that made everyone else jealous. Every event, school or extracurricular, was attended, every prom dress was handpicked, every party, birthday, graduation, or otherwise, was over the top. Her generous and servant heart will be remembered by all who knew her.

Carolyn was met in Heaven by many special people: her mother, Marjorie Becknell; father, Stacy Becknell; brother, Sonny Becknell; great granddaughter Olivia Rae Owens; nephews Jo Dean Weatherby, Jay Sim Weatherby, Jerry McCabe and Jeff Weatherby; her big sister and best friend, Ann McCabe Way; and Karman, who left an unfillable hole in her heart after a childhood of love and 51 years of marriage.

She leaves behind her son Tim and wife Claire of Vanderbilt, TX; son Jay and wife Jana of San Angelo; daughter Amy and husband Cal Hendrick of Odessa; and daughter Kristin and husband Ed Valicek of Houston. Mimi’s 12 grandchildren carry on her love of Christmas decorations, Fourth of July, Hallmark movies, UT Football and good smelling candles - Drew Weatherby, Scott Weatherby and wife Kyrsti, Allie Owens and husband John, Hunter Hendrick, Kaitlin Hendrick and fiancée James Payne, Ben Weatherby and fiancée Danielle Lewis, Caroline Weatherby and boyfriend Dylan Lane, Alex Valicek, Annie Valicek, Emily Valicek, Chandler Damuth and husband Zach, Landry Chipman and fiancée Trynity Manor. Her great grandchildren who brought such joy – Jolie and Piper Owens, Finnley Theron Weatherby, Parker Anne Owens and Tyler Chipman.

Other family members remaining to cherish her memory are her nephews Mike McCabe (Diana), Terry McCabe (Anna), Todd McCabe; nieces Kim Bundy (Scott), Brandi Ellis, Margo Gooding, Stacey Asbill (Brandon), Marjorie Maloney (Paul), Cindy Weatherby, Lynn Weatherby, and Yvette McCabe; sister-in-law Kay Ellis; as well as numerous great nephews and nieces, extended family and friends.

In addition to her blood relatives and every bit as loved is her friend, confidante, and caregiver Aurora Lozano. Aurora and her children and grandchildren are family - loved as those above and sometimes liked more!

Honorary Pallbearers are the RCHS Class of 1959

Pallbearers are nephews and great nephews Mike McCabe, Terry McCabe, Todd McCabe, Lane Worthington, Rusty Weatherby, John Weatherby, Jed Weatherby, Jacob McCabe, Cody McCabe, Cooper McCabe, Parker McCabe, and Vance McCabe.

The family is grateful for the love and care shown to Carolyn over the last few years by Ramona Soto, Patty Delacruz, Nancy Rychlik, and Norma Martinez. More recently by the Staff of Shannon Hospital 4 North, Concho Hearts Hospice and Visiting Angels.

Carolyn loved flowers of all kinds and the family requests that in her memory you share flowers with someone you love. In addition, a memorial may be made to, Meals for the Elderly, White Rose Support at Shannon Hospital, San Angelo Autism Center, Spring Branch FFA - Houston, TX, Mighty Waters Retreat, Concho Hearts Hospice, Briscoe Center for American History at the University of Texas, where the Dr. T. Karman and Carolyn Weatherby Gallery is located, or any organization that is dedicated to the eradication of breast cancer.

On Saturday, November 25, following a family graveside service at Lawnhaven Memorial Garden, a Celebration of Life will be held at 4:00 pm at First Methodist Church Celebration Hall, San Angelo, TX. A reception will follow the celebration. Help us celebrate her life by dressing in vibrant colors.

While no formal visitation is planned, those interested may visit Friday, November 24 from 8am-7pm or Saturday, November 25 from 8am-12pm at Harper’s Funeral Home, San Angelo, TX.
