Osler Paul Smith Jr.

02/16/2026 - 07:45 , by TKing09
Osler Paul Smith Jr., of San Angelo, passed away on February 12, 2026, at the age of 94.

He was born a giant. He lived as a giant. He died just the right size. Born September 19, 1931 in Texarkana, Texas it didn’t take long for Osler Paul Smith to make a name for himself in the sports page of the Texarkana Gazette. Even though the Chicago White Sox offered him a spot as a left handed pitcher, basketball was his true love. He was offered scholarships at Arkansas and Baylor, but didn’t want to be too far away from his high school sweetheart, Jane, who would later become his wife and our mother. He opted to play at East Texas Baptist, then Lambeth College in Tennessee, and finally at Mississippi College, where he finally graduated. Afterward he started his life as a true Renaissance man. Between college and his time in the Air Force as a radar specialist, he lived in Texas, Tennessee, Mississippi, Georgia, North Carolina, Colorado and finally his dream spot. Alaska. It was here that he and Jane exposed their yearning for adventure. He worked at a salmon cannery, taught school, coached basketball, worked for the Alaskan railroad and the Alaska Fish and Game as a stream guard. Life was about facing the elements, finding the undiscovered lake, and flying his plane to Anchorage for groceries. The three trips he and Jane took driving the unpaved Alaskan highway back to Texas must have cemented their union. Two of the kids, Becky and Margaret, were born in Seward before their final journey back to the lower forty-eight in 1960. From here he taught school and worked as a school counselor until he decided what he wanted to do as a grown up. The last two kids, Stephen and Bonnie, were both born in Texarkana. His family was complete. He finally took the leap and began his PhD program in psychology at East Texas State. He wrote his PhD dissertation in a camper on the back of our Dodge pick-up in the driveway in Greenville, Texas while Jane bought groceries on her teacher salary. For a couple of years us kids wondered where Dad was. He was in the driveway the whole time. That’s not entirely accurate, however. From the day we were all born, he was the roll on the floor and laugh with you kind of dad. He loved when we occupied his lap. He extended joy. We were never poor because we never wanted more than we had. Christmas was always magical. Every childhood event found Paul Smith cheering the loudest. He was always there. He was always present.

He finally gets his doctorate and decides to stay on as the Dean of Men at East Texas State for a year. At the urging of a local pediatrician, he took a leap and we moved to San Angelo in 1971 where he slowly grew his practice as a counseling psychologist. We, the kids, were in the prime of all our extracurricular activities. He was there for every event. Through it all, he was a rock. Patient, kind and loving, he and mom guided us through all our pubescent calamities with grace. It was always a treat, when out in public, someone would tell us what a wonderful father we had. We knew. He was a master at healing the broken psyche of those who sought his counsel. Even for us. Beyond that, he could rebuild a Chevy 350 engine. Make anything out of wood, garden like an Irishman, engage in intelligent conversions about politics, history, religion and philosophy. He was an avid WW2 history buff, always with a book in his hand. He adored our mother and was her nurse for years prior to her death. He was preceded in death by his wife, Sadie Jane. He is survived by his sister Charlotte Murdock in Texarkana, four children, Becky Rawls, Margaret Wimpee, Stephen Smith and Bonnie Smith. His grandchildren Sarah, Clint, Brandon, Megan, Zach, Graham, Abbie and nine great grandchildren all of whom adored their Papaw. He was easy to adore. Special thanks to his caregivers Marie, Alma and Maudlyne. He was born a giant, lived as a giant and died just the right size. Not knowing with one hundred percent certainty if there is a heaven or a hell, it’s certain that wherever his spirit is, it’s a much better place with the presence of Osler Paul Smith.

Joe M. Ornelas Jr.

02/16/2026 - 07:38 , by TKing09

Joe M. Ornelas Jr., a beloved, hard-working, honest, humorous, and resilient individual, passed away on February 9, 2026, at the age of 86. A resident of San Angelo, Texas, Joe was born on February 8, 1940.

Joe served briefly in the Army, demonstrating his commitment to service early in life. He then embarked on a long and successful career at GTE and diligently worked his way up to retire as a cable splicer. His career journey is a testament to his dedication and work ethic.

Family was central to Joe's life. He is survived by his children, Debbie Guerrero and her husband Oscar, and Ralph Ornelas and his wife Wynn. He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Ralph and Frances Delarosa, and Maggie and Santiago Ornelas, parents, Erlinda and Joe M. Ornelas, Sr., and sons, John Anthony Ornelas and Oscar Ornelas. Joe's legacy continues through his grandchildren, Katie Perduea and her husband Mathew, Andrew Munoz and his wife Valerie, Lacy McAnally, Cristopher Ornelas, Megan Guerrero, Ashley Campbell and her husband Joe, Sarah Guerrero, and Jacob Garcia, his great-grandchildren, Avery, Kylie, Ayden, Kash, Adrian, Liam, Desmond, Eloise, Sophia, Brycen, Alyssa, and Easton, his siblings, Olga Cruz and her husband David, Sylvia Ney and her husband Bret, Rick Ornelas and his husband Jeff, and Linda Elizando and her husband Bobby. Joe’s legacy will also be carried on by numerous nieces, nephews, and extended family members.

In lieu of services, the Ornelas family asks that you enjoy a round of golf in Joe's memory.

Golf was the game Joe loved to hate; he didn't have patience for much, but he sure did for golf. This passion reflected his unique ability to approach life with humor and resilience.

Joe lived life his own way, on his own terms. He would always say, "I'm fine." Though he may not have always expressed his love verbally, he ensured that those around him felt cared for through his actions.

The family extends their heartfelt gratitude to his granddaughter, Megan Guerrero, and Nurse Sarah from ICU, for their support and care.

Joe M. Ornelas Jr. will be remembered fondly by all who knew him, leaving behind a legacy of love, hard work, and resilience.

02/16/2026 - 07:34 , by TKing09
Darletta “Kay” Smart, born July 20, 1949, passed away peacefully on February 8, 2026, at the age of 76. She was born in Navasota, Texas, to Louis Jr. and Bonnie Muston Baker.

In September of 1965, Kay married Wilbur Ohlemacher, and together they welcomed three children. Years later, she found lasting love again with her husband of 17 years, Tommy Smart. Their marriage was filled with laughter, devotion, and many cherished memories.

Kay worked for several years as a quality control inspector at Ethicon, but her true passions were found outside the workplace. She was an exceptional baker, known especially for creating beautiful wedding cakes, and she was also a talented painter. Kay had a deep love for racing—not only supporting others in the sport, but becoming a skilled racer herself.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her brother, Milton Eugene Baker; her daughter, Redaina Kaufman; her stepson, John Smart; and her grandson, Kevin Ohlemacher.

Those left to cherish her memory include her loving husband, Tommy Smart; her brother, Ron Baker; her sons, Cam Ohlemacher and Darold Ohlemacher; her stepsons, Dan Smart and Paul Smart; along with 15 grandchildren and 21 great-grandchildren.

A Celebration of Life honoring Kay will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, February 14, 2026, at Freedom Fellowship Church.

The family would like to express their heartfelt gratitude to Park Plaza, Cedar Manor, and St. Gabriel’s Hospice for the compassionate care shown to Kay in her final days. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Cedar Manor or St. Gabriel’s Hospice in Kay’s name.

Betty Faye Cooper

02/16/2026 - 07:29 , by TKing09

Betty Faye Cooper, greatly loved wife, mother, granny, sister and aunt moved from this life to Heaven on Friday morning, February 13, 2026 at the age of 83 years old. She leaves behind a legacy of love and joy for those who knew her.

Betty was born on March 30, 1942 to George and Winnie Igo in Morton, Texas. She was the youngest of nine siblings and definitely enjoyed many fun and great times with her siblings and their families. The Igo family reunion was an event she enjoyed for many years as she got to spend time with her extended family.

She married George Cooper III on May 26, 1961 and they spent more than 64 years together. If you knew them, you know they were a team and enjoyed being with each other when working or just having fun.

Betty, or Mrs. C as she was known by many, taught children’s classes at church and also kept many children in her home day care for years. Those children became part of her family and she loved to tell funny stories about things they said and did. Above all, there was generally a big smile and laughter when she was in the room with them. She definitely had three bonus “grands” – Beth, Kendra and Lauren – who held a very special place in her heart.

She also loved to sew and her many projects can be seen in her home, at church, or in others’ homes. She loved to make gifts for all the church ladies and gave them on Mother’s Day. There are pieces of her handiwork in many places in San Angelo and Bronte.

The big loves of her life were Jesus and her family. She thought being a mom was great and being a Granny and Great Granny was even more exciting and definitely one of the biggest joys in her life. She always talked about how cute and smart those great grandchildren were and would probably show you every picture in her phone.

Betty is survived by her husband of 64 years, George Cooper; her two children Debbie Ward and her husband, Joe David and her son, George Cooper and his wife LeAnn; grandchildren Landon Ward (Loren), Haylee Cole (Garrett), Burgandee Cooper and Mackenzee Cooper; her great grandchildren Indie, Ellis, Evie, Reese and Rowen; her sister Ida Jones and brother Bill Igo and wife Betty and sister-in-law Lalee Igo and her niece that was like a sister, Rita Cox; and so many special nieces and nephews that were very important to her.

She was preceded in death by her parents George and Winnie Igo; her in-laws George Cooper Jr and Louella Kellar; siblings Wanda Gunnels (Jack), Fred Igo (Juanita), LM Igo (June), Glenna Jones (Charles), Joe Igo, and brothers-in-law Gene Roberts, Jerry Don Cooper (Judy) and Jesse Jones.

A Celebration of Life for Betty will be held on Saturday, February 21, 2026 at 10:30am at Grace Temple Baptist Church. We know that she has fought the good fight, finished the race and kept the faith and is now enjoying time in the presence of her Savior.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Hospice of San Angelo in Betty’s name. They gave exceptional care, for which we are grateful.
