Huby L. Owens

Huby L. Owens, 83 of San Angelo went to be with the Lord on Sunday, February 4, 2018 in San Angelo. Huby was born January 20, 1935 in Amherst, Texas to Alvin and Freddie McDaniel Owens. He grew up in Lamesa and graduated from Odessa High School. Huby was a self-made man and worked hard from a very young age. He was in sales all of his life and was very accomplished and successful at his job. He dabbled in different sales companies but mainly sold automobiles. Huby was a loving father and a great person to all. He lived life by “the golden rule” and was always willing to help others at a moment’s notice. His humor and sharp wit was only surpassed by his kindness and compassion for others. One of his favorite things to do besides being there for others, was to find a good bargain for almost anything. He loved the search and chase of it all and his intelligence usually afforded him his final triumph of winning the greatest bargain ever. Huby’s family was, of course, the most important thing in his life. He enjoyed being a father and grandfather and spending time with all of them. Huby also adored his two special dogs, FiFi and Bella. His passion for life and laughter and kindness will remain in our hearts forever and we will dearly miss him. Huby was preceded in death by his parents. He is survived by his daughter, Naomi Owens Lockhart and her husband Steve, of Wichita, KS; his son, Alvin Owens, of San Angelo; his sisters, Rubi Owens Edmonson, of San Angelo and Karen Wright Owens, of Wolfforth, TX; his grandchildren, Kimberly Childs and her husband Bryan, of Wichita, KS, Dustin Wehlmann, of Denver CO, Brett Cox, of Lewisville, TX, Robbie Cox, of Flower Mound, TX, Brannon Cox, of Flower Mound, TX and Kristen Cox, of Flower Mound, TX; 12 Great Grandchildren; 6 nieces and nephews; and numerous grand nieces and nephews. The family will receive friends from 5:00 P.M. – 7:00 P.M., Tuesday, February 6, 2018 at Harper Funeral Home. The graveside service will be 1:00 P.M., Wednesday, February 7, 2018 at Lamesa Memorial Park in Lamesa, Texas. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital. The family would like to give special thanks to Hospice of San Angelo, especially to Laura, Alaina, Becky, Kerry, and Dina for the care Huby received.
