Mike graduated from Odessa Permian High School and went on to earn an Associate's degree in Applied Science from DeVry Technical Institute in Chicago in 1966, a testament to his skill and passion. His career was distinguished by his work as an Electronic Technician, beginning at General Dynamics in Fort Worth, Texas, and later at NASA in Palestine, Texas, from 1974 to 1980. He concluded his professional journey at Goodyear Proving Grounds in San Angelo, Texas, where he worked from 1981 until his retirement in 2012.

A man of varied interests, Mike was passionate about classic cars, often attending car shows and enjoying weekly "church" meetings at Joe's. He was a cherished member of many local clubs to include The Corvette Club, Concho Classic Chevys and The Blues Society. He was also known for playing Santa for local children through out the years. His famous Sunday dinners with family will be missed by all who joined over the years.

His love for family was evident in his relationships with his children, Robbi and husband Pete Pena of Brownwood, Tracy King of San Angelo, and son, Michael King of San Angelo.

John Wesley Prentice, a beloved husband, father and friend passed away peacefully at his home on December 6, 2024, surrounded by family. He was born March 5, 1944, in Colorado City, Tx to parents Linam and Pearl Prentice. He married Mancy in 1963, and they had one daughter, Angelia, the love of his life. A loving friend, Barbara, and a very special cat companion, Abby. He graduated from Cross Plains High School in 1963.

He had a natural sense of direction all it took was one time and he could remember how to get there or where it was. His dad was an evangelist for 54 years, during that time they went to Slaton, Tx to pastor an Evangelical Methodist church. The church happened to be the one Mancy attended. One day John asked Mancy if she wanted to go get a coke, and she said yes. Three months later, they decided to elope and go to Acuna Mexico to get married because Mancy was only 15 ½ years old, they knew they would not get permission from their parents. They left them a note in the mailbox stating, “by the time you read this note, we will already be married”. The school rebel was sitting in front of Mancy in class, and she asked him if he wanted to be a witness for the wedding and he said yes. One month after they were married in Mexico they got married in the states with John’s dad as officiating. In 1970 he was transferred to Salt Lake City, Utah while working for Litton Systems building the “black box” for airplanes. He has always had a passion for cars. When he was a kid, he would get his parents to take him to watch circle track stock car racing. From watching stock car racing, to owning and driving multiple Sprint cars for the next 6 years. He returned to San Angelo in 1976, where, John’s love for cars led him to a job at Goodyear Proving Grounds for 28 years. After 60 years of marriage with God, love never fails.

He was the best earthly dad a daughter could have. He was kind, gentle, loving, patient, strong and genuine. He let me be me. He was always there for me no matter what time of day or night. We would go to baseball games and car shows. We would go see the “Outlaws” race, which is a professional Sprint car racing circuit. We would go in the “pitts” after the race and he would tell me about the cars and the different types of tracks. He preferred clay tracks, “they had better traction”, he would say. We would have silly string fights (he would always win). He taught me how to take care of my car. He always showed me unconditional love, over and over. I am thankful that my heavenly Father chose him to be my dad.

He gave his life to the Lord while attending a youth camp. In John’s spiritual journey with God, the Lord lead Mancy and him to the Garden School of Ministry in 2008, to be equipped in His word and work. While there his relationship with the Lord grew beyond bounds. He was also involved in Providence Outreaches, feeding and praying for the homeless. He loved the “Treasure Hunts” going out and finding someone to show the Father’s love and pray for them. John and Mancy had a cell group in their home, ministering, teaching, discipling, mentoring to all who came. John was a quiet man but when he spoke it was profound. He would always encourage others as lead by The Holy Spirit. He loved to worship his heavenly father. He was a man of God! His life was gloriously transformed and he experienced tremendous growth as never before, in the revelation knowledge of the love of the Father, in Jesus Christ and Holy Spirt.

The family would like to extend a special thank you to all the staff at Angelo Home Care for the excellent loving care and compassion they showed to John. The family would also like to thank Concho Hearts Hospice for their kindness, encouragement, support and compassion even though he was only here for a short time.

Serving as pallbearers will be Alan Pelzel, Nat Leon, Dow Ferguson, Manny Torres, Brint Harmon, Kevin McSpadden.

The celebration of John’s life will be held on Saturday, December 14, 2024, at 10:00AM at the Garden Gathering Church located at 1700 N. Chadbourne. Harper Funeral Home will be affiliating.

The family would like to announce the passing of Jean Slaughter, beloved mother, grandmother, and dedicated former hospice nurse, who left this world on Sunday, December 8, 2024, at the age of 85. Despite the sadness of this passing, join us in celebrating the wonderful memories and positive impact Jean had on those around her.

Celebration of life services will be 10:00 AM on Saturday, December 28, 2024 at Robert Massie Riverside Chapel. Arrangements are under the direction of Robert Massie Funeral Home.

Jean was born on June 9, 1939, in Pontypridd, Rhondda Valley of Wales to Ronald George and Lucy Maud Stevenson, the eldest of two children. As a child, Jean relied on her imagination to embark on adventures, seeking independence and the ability to care for others. This dream became a reality when, at 16, she pursued her passion for nursing. In 1971, Jean and her family journeyed from England to San Angelo, Texas. It was in San Angelo where her time as a nurse was spent at St. Johns, Shannon Hospital, Baptist Memorial, and the longest and most devoted endeavor as an LVN for Hospice of San Angelo. Jean found her true calling in hospice care, where she served her community with compassion and dedication for over 30 years until her retirement in 2011. Her care was directed towards the patients and everyone in the home. Jean often considered the complexities of her involvement with patients' families. Although she tried to compartmentalize her emotions, the deep connections she formed made it challenging to stay detached. Each story resonated with her, highlighting the profound impact of her work. Over the years, many families have thanked Jean for her care and dedication to assisting their family during one of the most difficult times of life. She was always humble at the recognition but knew it was not a coincidence that she was placed in their homes. Her gentle, unwavering commitment, with a sprinkle of British sass to her patients, profoundly impacted countless lives.

Jean loved knitting, making her creations without ever needing a pattern. She also loved watching her favorite television game shows, Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy, and Price is Right, with a cup of hot tea in hand.

Jean will be remembered for her incredible nursing professionalism and the love and warmth she brought to everyone around her. She embodies the spirit of caregiving, and her legacy will continue to inspire those who care for others. The family would like to thank HOSA for their service and for continuing the care instilled in the Hospice field.

Jean is preceded in death by her parents, Ronald George and Lucy Maud Stevenson; brother, Norman Stevenson; husband, Mercer Slaughter; former husband, Arthur Galindo; and daughter, Michelle Galindo Gonzales.

She is survived by three children, Mark Denton and wife Dawn, Sinah Magana, and Jennifer Galindo and husband Camerino; her grandchildren, Christopher Levario, Ashlee Denton, Benji Denton and wife Laurie, Holly Moore and husband Josh, Daniel Gonzales, Kimberly Magana and partner Anietie Jack, Brett Denton, Mateo Salazar, Olivia Salazar, Molly Denton, Reagan Denton, Channing Denton, and Emerson Denton; several great-grandchildren; and cousins, Viv, Richard, and Linda Barton.

"It is understandable to be afraid of death because we don't know. We can imagine, and we can hope. But in the end, we do not know what comes next. We have to trust our own hearts. I do not know what is after life. I know what the bible says. My Daddy used to tell me it is like falling asleep. It is whatever you believe. But nobody goes alone. I can vouch for that," Jean Slaughter, February 5, 2021.

He excelled at school, particularly at mathematics, and went to a State competition for Medical Math. He won that competition and qualified for a National competition, which he attended in Tennessee. He graduated from San Angelo Central High School in 1996 and from Howard College in 2014. Many things came easily to him, such as math, dancing and making friends. He was always surrounded by friends and would do anything for both his friends and family. He was a very kind and caring person. He had a way of connecting with people, easily earning their trust. He held many jobs over the years, most often working as a handyman. He loved music, movies, books and especially loved spending time with family, with friends and with his beloved dogs. He was generous not only in life, but also in death as an organ donor.

In his memory, in lieu of flowers donations will be accepted to Sacred Heart Cathedral.
