Demetrio Zuniga of Big Spring, Texas passed away on Sep 18, 2021. His loved ones are composing his obituary, which you will be able to read here.

John “Lee” Clare, 50, of San Angelo went to be with the Lord on Friday, September 17, 2021. Lee was born April 23, 1971, in Denver City, Texas to John Brit Clare, Jr. and Jackie Trucene Crowder Clare. He grew up in Denver City, Texas and graduated from Denver City High School. After high school, he attended heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) school in Arizona and graduated from there.

Lee worked for several companies in Denver City, Lubbock, and Austin before settling in San Angelo and establishing Clare’s Heating and Air Conditioning – Commercial Refrigeration LLC. Lee married the love of his life, Crystal Louise Murray on January 27, 2012, and they shared many beautiful years together and were raising four children. He was a loving son, brother, husband, and father who devoted his life to his Savior and his family. Lee was extremely proud of his wife and children. He loved taking an active role in coaching football, basketball and baseball on his children’s teams. In his spare time, he enjoyed reading his bible, going to church at PaulAnn Church and being at the lake. If there was a definition for “heart of gold”, Lee would be the description. He was the most genuine person and would do anything to help out in any situation. His smile was contagious, and his hugs put you in a place of such peace and comfort. Beauty is what he saw in everything, always looking for the good in any situation. His children and wife were his world as he was theirs. His advice to everyone was God, Family then Work…. And that’s what he lived by. Lee’s strong faith in the Lord and his tremendous love of his family will live on in our hearts forever and we will dearly miss him! He was preceded in death by his father, John Brit Clare, Jr., his brother, Todd Brit Clare and his sister, Darla Jean Clare.

Lee is survived by his wife, Crystal Clare, of San Angelo; 5 children; Karagan, Tatem, Slade and Preslee, all of San Angelo, and Victoria of Lubbock; his mother, Trucene Fort and her husband, Clyde, of Madill, OK; his sister, Kim Clare, of Hobbs, NM; his Mother-in-law, Flossie Flores and her husband Wayne, of San Angelo; his Father-in-law, Chris Murray and his wife Gina, of Brady, TX; his sister-in-law, Miranda Galvan and her husband Armando, of Christoval, Tx; his sister-in-law, Logan Murray, of Dublin, TX; and numerous nieces and nephews, Aunts, Uncles, other family members and close friends.

William (Will) Ellis Allen was born on July 16, 1949, to John David Allen, Jr. and Frances Lee Ellis Allen in Brownwood , Texas. On December 23, 1971, he married Deborah Helmers in Eden, Texas. Will and Deborah had two children, William Brett Allen and Julie Diane Allen. He passed away on September 16, 2021. 

Will lived in Brownwood until his senior year in high school when his family moved to San Angelo. He really enjoyed retelling the stories of the days of playing freely with his neighborhood friends in Brownwood as children of the 1950s and 1960s could do. 

It was in Brownwood where he started playing his lifetime sport of golf with his grandfather, “Daddy Will”, whom he spoke fondly of even in his final days. Will went on to play on his high school golf teams and at Angelo State University. After retirement, he played many rounds of golf with the Bentwood Noon Group until his back problems prevented him from playing. 

After graduating from Angelo State University, he worked at San Angelo State School. He started working in the warehouse and worked his way up to Chief Accountant. In 1998 he retired at age 49 after working for 27 years. 

Will’s survivors include his wife Deborah; his son Brett Allen and wife Melissa; and his daughter Julie and her husband Sam. He is also survived by his brothers John David Allen III, Thomas Allen (Ann), and his sister Kathy Ellebracht (Ben). Will was very proud of his five grandchildren: Addison Allen, Abigail Allen, Emma Francis, Sammy Francis, and Charlotte Francis. He is also survived by several nieces and nephews: Tom Allen, Tim Allen, Lee Ann Clawson, Keith Ellebracht, Lee Allen, Kathleen Helmers, Gaye Markham, Lori Seider, Kelley Hirt, Sherri Jarvis, and Terri Cook. 

Will was preceded in death by his parents John and Frances Allen, his grandparents William Richard and Jimmie Kate Ellis, Johnny D. and Mabel Allen, his niece Allison Allen Wilson and numerous aunts and uncles.

Sallie Kiest of San Angelo passed away Sept 15, 2021 at the age of 80. She was born on August 23, 1941 in Des Moines, Iowa to the parents of Henry Utley and Phyllis Frostle. After graduation from Dixon High School she attended the State University of Iowa. She joined the Kappa Alpha Theta Sorority and unbelievably maintained a close relationship with about twelve girls. They had a reunion every year for many years until age and health prevented annual gatherings. 

While on Christmas break during Sallie’s junior year she met her future husband Lanny Kiest who was home on leave from the Army. 

On July 6, 1963 they were married in Dixon, Illinois and moved to New York where she embarked on her career as a social worker on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. After a year they decided to move back to the Midwest when Lanny landed a job at a local TV station in Saginaw, Michigan. It was in Saginaw where they started their family. Being mom to Tracey, Meredith and Kelly was one of Sallie’s greatest joys. 

While juggling three children under five, Sallie also secured one of her favorite jobs working for an adoption agency. 

After fourteen years, the Kiest family moved to Houston, Texas. There, she worked as an assistant tennis pro at an indoor tennis complex. 

Additionally, she partnered with friend, Sue Trice and opened a consignment store called “The Spare Room,” ten years before consignment shops became popular. They were very successful and had a ball. Another positive of being in Houston was that the family was close to her husband’s brother living in San Antonio. Texas wise, that’s pretty close and holidays were spent with family in Houston or San Antonio. 

Another move took them to Little Rock where she returned to social work. After a few years, she and Lanny had a chance to get back to Texas, Midland briefly. Then fortunately, they landed in San Angelo which has been home since 1991. 

Shortly after arriving in San Angelo, Sallie helped develop CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) and served as the organization’s first Program Director. At a point, she moved to Baptist Retirement Community as a social worker until she retired. Prior to retirement she and another friend rented a booth in Concho Confetti Antique Mall and brought a little Houston history to San Angelo calling her space “The Spare Room.” It should be noted that Sallie was one of the first two women that were invited to join the Downtown Lions Club. 

She was a member of the First United Methodist church and of the Cheers Sunday School class. She was a door stepper and instrumental in establishing the 11th hour, a contemporary service along with the staff. 

In all the moves the family made, Sallie was always supportive and positive. She looked at every move as a new adventure. 

Sallie was a happy person, always had a smile on her face, loved people and they loved her back. She was such a positive person! Through her work over the years, she impacted many lives for the better. 
The family greatly appreciates the loving care Sallie received from the associates, nurses, and all personnel at The Crest West and Sagecrest. Thank you!!! 

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made in Sallie’s honor to Baptist Retirement Community, The Crest West or Sagecrest. 

Sallie’s worship service and celebration of life will be held at First United Methodist Church located at 37 E. Beauregard Ave. in San Angelo, TX on Saturday, October 2 at 11:00 a.m.

Cody Brock Allison, 56, formally of San Angelo, Texas went to be with Jesus on Friday, September 17, 2021, in Johnson City, Tennessee. 

Public viewing will be from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM Friday, September 24, 2021, at Robert Massie Funeral Home in San Angelo, Texas. Funeral services will be at 2:00 PM Saturday, September 25, 2021, at PaulAnn Church with Pastor Kirt Dauphin, officiating. Graveside services will be at 2:00 PM Monday, September 27, 2021, at Memory Garden Cemetery in Pampa, Texas with Brother Norman Rushing, pastor of Central Baptist Church in Pampa, officiating under the direction of Robert Massie Funeral Directors in San Angelo. 

Cody was born in Tyler, Texas on November 18, 1964 to Bill and Helen Allison. He was raised in Lefors and Pampa and was a 1983 graduate of Lefors High School. He received his bachelor's degree in business finance from Cameron University in Lawton Oklahoma. In the summer of 1989, he met Kim Scott and they were married 6 months later on January 5, 1990. They spent 31 beautiful years together enjoying their 5 children and 11 grandchildren. 

Cody was a firm believer and follower of Jesus Christ. The most important thing to him was for everyone he met to know the love of Christ. Anyone who knows him can attest to that. 

Cody worked in the car business with his dad, Bill from a very young age until 1999 when he moved to San Angelo, Texas and started his own. He owned and operated Cody's Cars and Trucks for many years before moving to Tennessee where he then owned and operated Mr. Transmission/Milex. It had been a long-time dream of his to move himself and his family to Tennessee to enjoy the mountains and outdoors. 

Cody was an avid golfer. Most days of the week you could find him out on the course with his friends. On Saturdays he even scheduled tee times around the Longhorns game. But Sundays were always set aside for church. and then maybe some more golf. He was very involved in church, teaching, ministering, and sharing the gospel. He truly loved his wife like Christ loves the church and he believed his children were a heritage from The Lord. He said they were the things he cherished most but maybe he loved being Pappy just a little bit more. 

Cody will be greatly missed by friends, family, and all who knew him. The impact he made on their lives will last for an eternity. 

Survivors include his wife, Kim Allison; two sons Caleb Allison and Jared White and wife Jessica; three daughters Ashley Garcia, Mary Chreene and husband Cody, and Abigail Stewart and husband Ty; eleven grandchildren Lincoln, Savannah, Brylie, Zeke, Abel, Lake, Madilyn, Lailyn, Landrick, Harlynn, and Jackson; his mother, Helen Allison; a brother Tyler Allison and wife Howdi, and a sister Stephanie Allison; and a special friend, Manny. Cody was proceeded in death by his father, Bill Allison; his grandparents Marvin and Luella Allison and Claude and Myrtle Brock. 

Pallbearers for Cody Allison's Saturday service will be Lynn Allison, Mike Jackson, Tom Delaughter, Kenny Hill, David Aycock, Chuck Harzke, and Rick Howard. Honorary Pallbearers are Billy West, Donnie Winegeart, Cameron Klein, Tony Osborne, and Bret Wulfkuhle.
