George Head

Published

on

March 8, 1947 – August 27, 2021

SUNSET – George Head, 74, Sunset, TX went home to be with the Lord on Aug. 27, 2021 in Wichita Falls, TX.
A memorial service will take place at 1 p.m. on Sept. 2 at the First United Methodist Church in Bowie.

George was born on March 8, 1947 in Little Rock, AR to Carl and Opal (Curtis) Head. He was raised in a military family and grew up in Arkansas, Kansas, Texas, Alaska and Germany. As a young man, he joined the United States Marine Corps, and served eight and half years for his country including the Vietnam War. Just prior to his deployment, George married Kathy Wright on March 8, 1968. Following the war, the service took the family to Camp Pendleton, CA, Hawaii, 29 Palms, CA and the Panama Canal Zone. Civilian life brought the family to Texas and they settled in the Dallas- Fort Worth area. George attended a trade school and became a computer repair technician.

After many years of searching, George and Kathy found a 10-acre piece of land in Sunset and finally were able to make it their permanent home. The two of them took to the road, driving a truck until Kathy’s health declined. The couple then started a small crafting business, selling their creations. George dedicated his life to taking care of Kathy; caring for her during her final years as her health was failing. He then took time to enjoy his retirement, raising chickens, volunteering where he was needed, solving the world’s problems over coffee at the Dairy Queen, and spending time with his church family at the First United Methodist Church.

He is preceded in death by his parents and wife, Kathleen Ann Head.

George is survived by his sons, Harold Head and wife, Dona, Coppell and Chris Head and wife, Dinah, Kearns, UT; sister, Fran Smith; brothers, Carl Head Jr. and Richard Head; grandchildren, Samantha Lynn, Sabrina Jeanette and Anna-Lee and great-grandchildren, Chyenne and Levi.

Should friends desire, in lieu of flowers, memorials can be made to the First United Methodist Church at 1515 Jefferson St. Bowie, TX 76230.

Arrangements entrusted to the White Family Funeral Home of Bowie.
