Evelyn June Massey Strebeck, 85, departed this world September 17, 2020. She was born June 9, 1935, in the heart of the Great Depression, on a cotton farm 6 miles east of Eola, Texas, just across Kickapoo Creek, the tenth of eleven children born to W. M. (Bill) Massey and Lizzie Jo Prosise Massey. She is enjoying a well-earned rest in the peace and contentment of her Lord and Savior, with family and friends who went before her. 
June graduated from Paint Rock High School as Valedictorian of her class in 1952. She then met George Edward Strebeck her first year at San Angelo College in 1953. They were married March 25, 1955, three days after he was commissioned a U. S. Air Force Officer. Although she spent much of her adult life with medical issues, she still managed to raise three beautiful daughters with her husband of 65 years. After marriage, they traveled over half of the world to his Air Force assignments, from Austria in Europe to Thailand in Southeast Asia, stopping at times in 25 states and eight foreign countries. June held down the fort while George was off on assignments away from home. June was a lifelong member of the Church of Christ and managed to find a congregation with which to worship nearly everywhere they traveled. Many church members paths have crossed more than once. 
After her husband retired from his twenty five year Air Force career, they returned to San Angelo where June became active as a volunteer in her church home, Johnson Street Church of Christ. She worked at the church in the resource room supporting classroom activities. She prepared and donated baked goods to nursing homes for their monthly birthday celebrations and in so doing became recognized on a program called “Time to Care” being aired by a local TV station. 
After returning to her West Texas roots, she joined her sisters, all of whom live in Texas, and they began an annual sisters’ reunion which they took turns hosting. Sometimes they even let brothers and husbands attend. Their annual affair even got some notoriety until travel became a problem as they grew older and activities had to be curtailed. 
June was preceded in death by her parents, four sisters, two brothers, and four nephews. She is survived by her husband of 65 years, George Edward Strebeck; three daughters: Debra Rhodes and husband Melvin of Delavan, Wisconsin, Patricia Strebeck of Austin, Texas and Monica Strebeck of San Angelo, Texas; three grandchildren: Justin Rhodes and wife Jennifer, Christina Rhodes and Alexa N. Strebeck-Sicina. She is also survived by three sisters, one brother, 8 nieces and 10 nephews. 
June will be available for viewing from 8:00 A.M. to 8:00 P.M. Monday, September 21, 2020 with the family receiving friends for visitation from 5:00 P.M. – 7:00 P.M., Monday evening at Harper Funeral Home. A private graveside service will be held. Masks are required while attending the visitation. 
The family wishes to sincerely thank the staff and nurses and aides of Regency House for their loving care over the past nine years, and for the special care she and the family received at the end of June’s Journey. A very special thank you goes to Nurse Susan Cole who cared for June the entire time. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Rust Street Ministries, St. Gabriel’s Hospice in San Angelo, or a charity of your choice.

Guy Leon Abbott, Sr., 75, of San Angelo went to be with his Lord and Savior on Wednesday, September 16, 2020 surrounded by his loving family and close friends. Guy was born July 25, 1945 in San Angelo, Texas to Leon and Mildred Luther Abbott. He grew up in San Angelo and graduated from San Angelo Central High School. Guy attended Angelo State University for a few semesters. He also served his country honorably in the United States Marine Corps before deciding to enter into a career in law enforcement. Guy married the love of his life, Sabre Janelle Muehlbrad on June 5, 1966 in Brownwood, Texas. They shared 54 beautiful years together and raised two children. Guy served as Deputy Sherriff in Travis County and then later as the Chief Deputy Constable in Travis County. After moving back to San Angelo, Guy served as a Deputy Sheriff in Tom Green County for some time before leaving law enforcement. He and his brother partnered together to run Abbott’s Grocery Store when their father retired, and after many years Guy would retire from there. He was not the kind of person to sit around and be idle after retirement, so he decided to run Blockbuster Video in San Angelo until his health would no longer allow him to work. Even in his spare time, Guy remained very active in the community as a Shannon Medical Center Volunteer, a member of the San Angelo Downtown Lions Club, the San Angelo chapter of the American Legion, the Concho Country Emmaus Community, an active member of St. Luke United Methodist Church and most of all playing Santa at Christmas time for many people in the community. Dressed as Santa, Guy and his wife Sabre would visit every floor of Shannon Medical Center to bring joy to all the patients, young and old, on Christmas Eve and Christmas Morning. In his “real” spare time, he enjoyed dancing and fishing and especially being with his grandchildren and following them to all of their sporting events or school events. Guy was a very loving and giving husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather and all-around person who devoted his life to his family and community with his Lord being the center of it all. His love and generosity and quick wit will remain in our hearts forever and we will dearly miss him! Guy was preceded in death by his parents, and one grandson, Kyler Scott Lee. He is survived by his wife, Sabre J. Abbott; his Daughter, Sheila Marie Baker and her husband Gary Baker; his Son Guy Leon Abbott, Jr. and his wife Elisha “Rocki” Abbott; his Grandchildren, Cody Lynn Lee and his wife Randi Lee, Tyson Michael Baker and his wife Mandi Baker, (Kyler Scott Lee,) Ayden Dale Abbott and Avery Kiersten Abbott; his great grandchildren, Jaelyn Nikole Baker and Malia Grace Baker who is “on the way.” Guy is also survived by his brothers, Bobby Abbott and his wife Loretta Abbott, Lonnie Abbott and his wife Millie Abbott; his Sister, Mary Beitler; his Brother’s-in-law, Steve and Carla Benton, and Mike and Shirley Benton; his Sister’s-in-law, Pat and Roy Salas, Shirley and Clint McEwin and Judy and Dean Adams. The family will receive friends for visitation from 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM, Friday, September 18, 2020 at Harper Funeral Home.
