The Kerr County Lead

He fiercely loved his family, his friends, and his numerous mentors. He would have given his shirt to any of them. He loved hunting, horseback riding, John Wayne movies, Merle Haggard, and the Texas countryside. Patch will be missed by many.

While employed by AMF Tuboscope, he traveled to 26 different countries. Cairo was his first overseas trip on the job and one of the most memorable. His hobbies included dancing, fishing, hunting and Ham radio. He and his dad founded Boots Follmar Marine, a Mercury outboard dealership in Houston and he was a member of the American Radio Relay League.

Kerrville’s Allen Ross Stern connected with people wherever he was. He served his community in every role possible, including at church, coaching youth sports, and scouting.

Gloria Ellen Rose wanted to travel the world with the love of her life and to cherish her family — she did both.

Jose Santos Jr. had a heart for his family and for stray cats, and he wanted to honor The Big Fix, an advocacy group to spay and neuter stray cats.

He is survived by his best friend, partner and wife, Pat Angell, two wonderful sons, Russ Angell and wife Dona, Matt Angell and wife Amy. Also his bonus family – Kelly Vela and husband Ricky, Shellie Maples and Michael Maples. Grandchildren: Jordan Whitehead, Caroline Angell, Colby Angell, Ashley Vela, Marissa Vela, Mya Vela, Wendy Maples. Great-grandchildren: Colt, Ace and Harlow.
