Gerald Dwayne Creel, 67, died June 29, 2023 at his home in San Angelo, Texas surrounded by family and friends. Gerald was born July 13, 1955, in Big Spring, Tx to Mary Havins Creel and Gordon Clifton Creel. He grew up with his older sister Peggy Creel Trosper and older brother Darrell Glenn Creel living in Coahoma, Austin, Plainview, and Brownwood, Tx, as well as Bozeman, Montana, making mischief all along the way.

His family settled in San Angelo, Tx in 1965 where Gerald found lifelong friends who knew him as “Booty” and a love of old books, particularly those on Texas history. He was married to Peggy Patton on March 18, 2000 in Ft. Davis, Tx in the presence of their children, family, and friends.

Gerald had a strong work ethic from a young age and worked summer jobs on ranches, swept floors in stores, and worked other jobs during high school. He graduated from San Angelo Central High School, Angelo State University (BS in Biology and BS in Nursing), and Texas Tech University (MBA). He worked for the Texas Water Development Board in Austin and later owned and operated Concho Valley Pecan Company in San Angelo. Subsequently, he completed the nursing program at Angelo State University and was employed by Shannon Medical Center in San Angelo until he retired in 2020. As a nurse, Gerald was a friend and mentor to many; he leaves a legacy of teaching and leading so many others throughout their own careers.

Gerald loved to fish, especially in the rivers of Montana and Colorado, and took great joy in teaching his children and grandchildren to fish and hunt on and near the North Concho River in Tom Green County, Tx. Gerald was a talented gardener, growing premium tomatoes, peppers, and other vegetables. He was also a chocolatier, a prefect hobby for his sweet tooth, and was an avid reader. Gerald was “Grandpa” to many and a friend to all. He loved animals and his two most loyal companions, Bella and Sadie, were by his side always.

Gerald was preceded in death by his father Gordon Creel and mother-in-law Patricia Patton. He is survived by his wife of 23 years, Peggy of San Angelo; his children Liza Creel of Denver, Co and her family Dusty and Harlan; Houston Creel of Odessa, Tx and his family Joselyne, Kelton, and Harrison; Autumn Brown of San Angelo and her family Macie and Camden; Amber McWilliams of San Antonio, Tx and her family Sandra and Jordan; Laramie McWilliams of Luling, Tx and her family Jeremy, Hazel, Lillian, and Augustus. He is also survived by his mother Mary Creel of San Angelo; brother Darrell Creel and wife Ann of Fredericksburg, Tx; sister Peggy Trosper of Canyon, Tx; father-in-law Don Patton of San Angelo; brother-in-law Nelson Patton and wife Terri of Midland, Tx; sister-in-law Pam Fowler and husband Jerry of Austin, Tx; and many nieces and nephews. Also surviving him are those he loved as his own: Monica, Chad, Reagan, and Trevor Reeves and Sharon and Mike Williams. He will be missed and remembered by an uncountable number of friends.

A memorial service is planned for July 15, 2023 at 1:00 PM at The First Presbyterian Church.

In lieu of flowers the family requests that memorials be made to Hospice of San Angelo, Rust Street Ministries in San Angelo, any organization funding or leading cancer research, or your favorite charity. The family would like to thank Dr. Raj Cheruku and the chemotherapy team at Shannon Medical Center, the staff at Hospice of San Angelo, John and Monica Harvey, Barbie Reichert Young, and Barbie Tweedy for their kindness always but especially during Gerald’s illness.

As a final way to honor Gerald, we ask that you remember and follow his constant advice: "Be kind to one another.”

Wylie O. Webb, 90, passed away from multiple myeloma, bone cancer, at his home on June 24, 2023. He is survived by his wife of 54 years, Anita Glyn Russell Webb, daughter, Aleesa Shawn Webb, and the light of his life, his namesake and grandson, Wylie “Gage” Hahn.

Wylie was the third of six children born to Oval Dee “Jack” Webb and Clyde Othell Lee Webb. He was born in San Angelo, Texas, early in the morning on St. Patrick’s Day 1933. His grandmother delivered him in her maid’s quarters of the wealthy family for whom she worked. At the age of two, Wylie was diagnosed with severe scoliosis (spine curvature greater than 50 degrees) and was sent to the Dallas/Ft. Worth area for treatment. His family was of modest means, so he had to stay alone at the children’s hospital for two months. Back and leg braces followed for years; he was never allowed to play sports or do most physical activities. To earn his physical education credits, he walked from Junior High School (later became Edison) to Reagan Elementary School, to assist the janitor in cleaning for the next day of school. Wylie graduated from San Angelo High School in May of 1951 and enlisted in the United States Air Force where he was trained first as an aircraft and engine mechanic, then as a flight engineer for a B-29. Wylie spent a year at the K-9 airbase in South Korea followed by a stint at Tinker AFB in Oklahoma. After being honorably discharged in April 1955, he set out to realize his dream of owning his own business. Thanks to the GI Bill; he was able to attend San Angelo Junior College (SAC) for 3 semesters and then transfer to The University of Texas at Austin where in 1959 he obtained his Bachelor of Business Administration. Shortly after graduation from UT, Wylie came back to San Angelo to gain experience in his field and pass the CPA exam. He worked for Jones, Freeze, Hay & Company Accounting Firm and then for Hall, McCoulsky, and Bachman where he became a partner. In 1977, he achieved his dream by co-founding Webb & Webb Accounting Firm where he retired in 2017. Two of his favorite jobs included the audits of San Angelo ISD and the City of San Angelo.

Throughout his life; Wylie was extremely involved in various civic activities; he served as president, treasurer, or chairman of the following organizations: President of the San Angelo Chamber of Commerce/Board of City Development; chaired the committee to find a replacement for the Miss Wool Pageant which became known as Fiesta del Concho; River Corridor Commission, San Angelo Country Club; San Angelo Jaycees; San Angelo Chapter of the Texas Ex Students Association; West Texas Lighthouse for the Blind; Elks Lodge #1880; Bobcat Boosters Club; Ram Club at Angelo State University; Fort Concho Museum Association; the Mary Ellen Kent Bunyard Family Foundation, and the Concho Valley Arthritis Association, just to name a few!

Additionally, Wylie played a major role in both the school system and City government. In 1968 he was elected to the City Commission and in 1970, he was elected Mayor of San Angelo. Some of the issues he faced during his stint as Mayor were a federal move to close Goodfellow Air Force Base, police chief issues, consolidation of the city and school vehicle maintenance shops, and a continuing drought and water crisis. In fact, a popular television show of the seventies, Laugh-In, awarded Wylie Webb, Mayor of San Angelo, the “Flying Fickle Finger of Fate Award” twice. Once for being the official representative of a city with three dry lakes and a $3 million pipeline to another dry hole, E.V. Spence Reservoir, and second for having a city with a “burning lake”. The San Angelo Fire Department was struggling to control brush fires and decided to administer a controlled burn of the weeds and cane at the dry bottom of North Concho/O.C. Fisher Reservoir thus the burning lake. A note of optimism about the water situation: During his tenure as Mayor, underground options were taken and executed on 63 sections of land from Hickory sandstone formations which would establish permanent deep underground water supplies to supplement the three reservoirs which is now, all these years later, slowly paying off.

In 1981, Wylie was elected to the School Board of San Angelo ISD. During his 9 years of service, both as a board member and later president, he was a voice for logical, appropriate and sensible organizational structure as well as strong financial controls. A source of great pride for him was being able to represent the Board and award his daughter, Aleesa, with her diploma.

Three of Wylie’s most outstanding honors were the Distinguished Public Service Award from Texas State Society of Certified Public Accountants in 1969; the Nathan’s Jewelers Scholarship Academic Award to Angelo State University for outstanding support and distinguished service to Angelo State, the City of San Angelo and to this area of West Texas for the 1972-73 academic year; and being selected the Chamber of Commerce Citizen of the Year in 2002.

There will be no services at Wylie’s request. Memorials may be made to either the Mary Ellen Kent Bunyard Family Foundation (PO Box 3949, San Angelo, TX 76902) for which he was a lifetime board member or the nonprofit of choice. He will be remembered for his kindness and absolute integrity.

Eldona Jean Banks passed away in the early morning June 24th, in El Paso Tx. She suffered a terrible fall on June 6th and fought as hard as she could for 18 days. A-fib, pneumonia and lung problems finally were too much for a brave little lady.

Jean was born on July 30th, 1943, in San Angelo to Al and Elizabeth Lamoree. She lived in San Angelo and Round Rock, Tx as a little girl.

She married Weston C. Wolff in 1961 and was married to him for 6 years, having two girls together, Kimberly and Tamela.

In 1970, Jean married John Banks who was a Long-Haul Trucker, and she took care of the girls and her home. In 1973 Lisa was born to Jean and John.

After the girls were all grown and out of the house, they moved to Aledo where they lived until 2017 when they sold their home and hit the road in their Motorhome. They traveled extensively through the Western USA –but Jean especially loved the mountains of Colorado and New Mexico.

Jean loved babies, “America’s Funniest Home Videos”, and a hot slot machine. But most of all she loved her family and the Lord.

She was preceded in death by her parents, her daughter Tamela Long, stepdaughter Janielle Whitmer, and granddaughter, Tiffany Long.

She is survived by her loving husband, John, daughters Kimberly Long of Kerrville and Lisa Parlow (and Tim) of Weatherford, son-in-law Rickie Long (and Stacey), granddaughter Amber Chapman (and Beau), Caleb Long (and Caroline), Cameron Long (and Amanda), Caegan Long and 5 great grandchildren. Oh and one little dog, Sully.

Jean will be available for viewing from 12:00 P.M. – 7:00 P.M. Friday, June 30, 2023, at Harper Funeral Home (2606 Southland Blvd.) The family will receive friends from 11:30 P.M. to 1:30 P.M.
